Running for RED...NYC half marathon

[C.H.Haskell]

Dear fellow redusers,

Please support my effort to raise funds for youth fitness by sponsoring me in the 2011 NYC Half-Marathon. I must be crazy cause I am not in the best shape but this has been a very inspiring mission and I know I can do it. I am training every day and determined to see this through!

Tonight is my last night and I am only 200 dollars away from my goal. I have never done anything like this but its been a wild journey and I have been overwhelmed by the support from friends and family...and yes, redusers, many of which who have become friends and family.

Any donation are MUCh appreciated and of course all contributions are tax deductible. A safe and secure contribution can be made HERE

I assure you I this is not a scam and for the modders...sorry if this is not allowed...feel free to delete if I am breaking rules, its just for a good cause.

See you at the finish line, I will have a RED logo on my back!

I did a lot of running last year. I was in the best shape of my life. That was the best part about being near the canyons in LA.

Best of luck, JA

Jeffrey! THank you so much. I imagine running the canyons in LA must have been quite majestic. I want to thank all redusers who contributed and or supported me along the way...I reached my goal thanks to you kind folks, I can not express how appreciated I am. Best

Clay

Are you running with your Red One?

Impossible. With an EPIC perhaps.

Update.

I set out to raise money to be sponsored to run in the 2011 NYC half marathon, and my mission was to complete the race. ‎13 miles @ a 10min 30sec mile average brings me across the finish line in 2 hours and 18min. Mission Accomplished! Here is a map of the course tracked by my phone,
I had planned to finish in two and a half hours so I feel good about the time. It was a great run and thankfully we had great weather as well. This was my 1st half marathon and longest distance for me so I mainly wanted to find a comfortable pace and cross the finish line without injuring myself. I highly recommend this event!

This was all made possible by friends, family, and redusers who helped sponsor me in the 2011 NYCHalf Marathon, so thank you!!! I am very grateful... we raised more than $325,000 in support of New York Road Runners’ youth programs—funds that will allow us to serve more than 8,100 children from low-income communities in the year ahead. What an incredible and humbling experience, my 1st and certainly not last. Cheers! :cheers2:

Great Clay!!!

Also I'm running so often in my favorite place Belvedere Gardens and Botanical Garden at very close neigh-borough in Vienna.

Pretty quite place and always fresh air guaranteed in a comparison to run at the city center route...

THanks folks, it was really incredible and again thanks to those who helped sponsor me.
