Running my first 1/2 marathon, and raising money for charity.

[K8teebug]

Hello fellow board members (I got this cleared before posting it),

Last year, I lost a dear friend, Julie Kline Rybczynski, to leukemia.  I decided a good way to honor her would be to raise money for a local cancer center here in Maryland.  I am participating in the Maryland 1/2 marathon on May 15th, and have a fundraising goal of $1,500.00.   This will be the first time I have both run a race this long and participated in fundraising, but I am sure it will be a great experience.  I will be sure to keep you updated along the way.
 
Please consider contributing in any way you can to this endeavor.  All contributions are 100% tax deductable!

K8teebug, I just did this myself for Crohns and Colitis in December.  You can count on a donation from me.

It is a wonderful experience - I enjoyed it so much I'm a mentor now for the group and am helping train folks just like you for the Napa to Sonoma half marathon in the summer.

Good luck!

Thank you so much!  Good luck with training others!  That 1/2 marathon sounds awesome.
