Hippie Trooper Posted September 22, 2008 Author Share Posted September 22, 2008 Just two weeks to go everyone! I want to thank everyone who has shown support so far. But I am still not half-way to my goal! Every bit helps, from $1 to $100, whatever you can give! Think about this, if everyone from every board I frequent donates $1, that goal would be reached and far surpassed in one day! Thanks again!

Hippie Trooper Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 I want to thank everyone who donated to this great cause! I actually raised the most money out of my team! My total raised was $290 and my team raised a total of $4612!!! The race was great, I had a blast! I ran it in aprox 28 mins. Its really hard to tell because there were way too many people at the start line, and many walkers and strollers did not place themselves in the back as they were suppossed to, so the first 5-8 minutes were spent walking, slowly, and then zig-zagging past all the walkers. I didnt actually start running until I was about 1/8 of a mile from the start line! :roll: The surprising thing to me was how much fun I actually had! I was in the ARMY for 7 1/2 years and had to run every day. I always hated it and was never good at it. When I got out I didnt think I'd run, on purpose, ever again. So you can imagine my surprise when I actually felt good and had fun doing this! Now my wife, daughter and I want to start doing these runs on a regular basis! Again thanks to everyone who contributed, it is because of you that I commited to getting my butt out there on the pavement and helping a great cause! Here's some pics: My girls representing the 501st! Later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
