AR3 in Action

So what's new anyway?

Since we last chatted on this page much has happened/will be happening.

First, we raised $600 for Anneliese's Road Racers for Research through a yard sale held at Liz's aunt's house in Milford. That brought us to nearly $1000 in donations for the Indianapolis 500 Festival Minimarathon campaign. Thanks goes out to family and friends for their support in the forms of items to sell and time. Without help we could not achieve such great results. $1000 more for research to find a cure for NF. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Next, Chasing Down the Cure 5k is on the books for July 11th. Please come out and join us for a morning of walking/running. Also, cast a wide net by inviting family and friends to come out for the race or to sponsor you. Details on the website, click on the link above.

Next, I signed up for the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon which takes place Nov. 7. This will be my second crack at 26.2 miles. Training officially starts in 2 weeks. No goal finish time in mind yet.

Last but not least, our NF Endurance friends are undertaking an awe inspiring trek across the country on bikes. 3 teams wearing NF colors will venture from CA to MD in about 8+ days of riding in the Race Across America. All total they have raised nearly $190,000 for this event through fundraising. Unbelievable. Follow their trip here: www.ariangels.org.
