Running for Others
I run marathons around the world... one on each of the 7 continents -- 5 done with Antarctica in March of 2012 and Kilaminjaro in July of 2013, in each of the 50 states -- 31 run as of 12/11, and the 5 world marathon majors -- done! I run over a marathon-a-month, AND pay all of my own travel fees and expenses, to inspire others -- with my dedication and sweat -- to get involved in our community and to donate either time or money to 5 vital Alexandria-based charities. Since establishing The runningbrooke Fund in May of 2009, I've run over 43 marathons and raised over $110,000.
Here is what the RunningBrooke Fund has awarded so far. . .
. . . And our goal for 2012 is an ambitious, $75,000.
