Me, I love supporting a good cause. I suspect you do too. Here's one: World Run Day. It happens on November 11th, and it's a marathon. Well, kind of.
Here's the deal: You can run any distance you'd like (like a marathon or half marathon), anywhere in the world, all for a good cause -- a donation to the charity of your choice. You can recruit other runners in your area to join you, you can do it on your own, or you could even do a virtual run. Whatever your preference, the point is to get people together, to get running and to generate support for charitable giving. Registration to what just might be the biggest running event ever is $25, which also includes a t-shirt and a runner's bib with your name on it.
I think this sounds like an excellent idea -- I might just sign up! What about you?
