Runners turned out in the hundreds on April 22 at De Anza Cove to support the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings with a “Boston Strong San Diego” memorial race. The event, one of several that took place around the country one week after the bombings, started with a moment of silence, pictured above.

Other events are in the works to support victims. A fundraiser to benefit The One Fund Boston will take place at Thrusters Lounge in Pacific Beach from 6 to 9 p.m. today, April 25. The event will feature free samples from Bite of Boston, along with a raffle of items donated by local businesses.

There will be a suggested $5 donation at the door and raffle tickets and T-shirts will be available for sale. Prizes include Padres tickets, memberships to Bird Rock Fit and gift cards to area businesses. Thrusters Lounge is located at 4633 Mission Blvd.
