5K is not so far . . .
Seriously, 5 kilometer is just over three miles. Three miles isn’t far, right? You could run three miles, couldn’t you? Yes, well, let's do this!!! No? Well, how about walking then???
Still not quite convinced? What if you run/walk/bike/whatever three miles AND RAISED MONEY FOR A CANCER FUNDRAISER??? You’d certainly do that, right?
All donations go directly to the American Cancer Society and all it takes to participate is a minimum donation of $10 to Team Babbo for the 2012 Relay for Life, in memory of my dad at the following link:
https://secure.acsevents.org/site/Donation2?idb=1722229906&df_id=1010551&1010551.donation=form1&FR_ID=52019&PROXY_ID=13418897&PROXY_TYPE=20
Then just walk or run your 5K anytime between March 29th and April 1st and post your name and time.
Seriously, you want to do this. It’s a great thing to be a part of. And you can do it!!! We may not be able to run our 5K in the same place but knowing we are all running together, virtually, will be a really cool thing. Knowing you are all with me will really push me to do my best!! Do I have you with me?
Depending on participation, I will be trying to line up a few great prizes and will accept prize donations to be raffled off to some random participants. The more participants, the better the prizes!
Please pass this information on to all of your family and friends!!!
Here is the link to the Facebook event if you wanted to sign up there for an added reminder:
