shameless plug / solicitation (please reblog if you are feeling particularly magnanimous / need extra karma points today):
I am running the Marine Corps Marathon (2nd time!) in October and have entered as a charity runner on behalf of an awesome non-profit called BACK ON MY FEET, which is a group that helps promote the self-sufficiency of the homeless by engaging them in running as a way to build confidence, strength, and self-esteem.
I recently started running with the DC chapter of Back on my Feet (with guys from La Casa Transitional Rehabilitation Program shelter - http://www.dccfh.org/LaCasa.php) and am definitely impressed with everything so far. If you are interested in joining as a volunteer runner, Back on my Feet has chapters in DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, & Boston, and will be starting in DFW, Mps / St. Paul, Chicago and Atlanta soon.
I am 94% of the way to my goal of raising $2500 - just $140 to go.
