Here's an Opportunity to Help Injured Marines and Their Families

I am running in the 2008 Charlottesville Marathon in Charlottesville, VA with Team Semper Fi and am raising money for injured Marines and their families. My goal is to raise at least $250. You can help by making a contribution, please use the link below to donate online quickly and securely.

The donations will go to the Semper Fi Fund. You will receive email confirmation of your donation and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation. If you prefer to make an offline donation, the link below explains how to do so. Just let me know your donation amount, so I can add it to my total. I thank you in advance for your support, and truly appreciate your generosity.

My next race following Charlottesville is the Marine Corps Historic Half in Fredericksburg, VA May 18th. My last marathon on February 16 in Myrtle Beach, SC was very successful, please help me continue the success. While a donation would be fantastic, words of encouragement to those in our Armed Forces are always appreciated!

UPDATE - Charlottesville is a tough run. If you ever are looking for a challenging marathon, Charlottesville is a good one. The course is hilly, the scenery beautiful, the volunteers friendly and the race is well run. I'll never forget the sweet smell of honeysuckle everywhere.

Thank you all for the support!

Craig, you just became one of my heroes. Your cause helps the Marines and their families continue to make the ultimate sacrifice for our country and I applaud you for so generously giving back.

Thanks Amanda. Those men and women and their families are my heroes. When I've got some lame excuse (ANY excuse is lame) why I can't lace up my shoes and hit the pavement, I think about what they sacrifice and what they do for me and my family. Running Marathons and raising some money seems like the least thing I can do.

Thank you very much for creating the perfect Group to post our causes.

Craig, I'll be going to the link to donate. Thank you - this is the very least I can do to say thank you to the brave men and women who serve our country to protect my freedom.

P.S.- Do you know Steve Bozeman from Lynchburg, VA?

Debbie, thank you very much for your generous donation. I appreciate it very much. Steve Bozeman? No, I don't think I do.
