Los Angeles Marathon

Hi All,
Some of you may have read my post from earlier this year about the Las Vegas Marathon...a few of us veggie runners are trying to put together a nationwide vegan running network and we can meet up at a few races throughout the year decked out in vegan message gear and spreading the word that vegans are healthy and joyful and tough enough to run marathons!  We didn't have a great response for runners for the Las Vegas Marathon (still not too late to join us---it's in early December!) so we are going to try to recruit a bigger group to run the Los Angeles Marathon in March 2010. There is an AWESOME new course and the city is very jazzed about it--they expect a huge turnout of both runners and spectators, so this is the perfect opportunity to make an impact! 

If you are interested in joining us in March, let me know! I can be reached at eval(unescape('%64%6f%63%75%6d%65%6e%74%2e%77%72%69%74%65%28%27%3c%61%20%68%72%65%66%3d%22%6d%61%69%6c%74%6f%3a%6c%6d%7a%65%69%67%6c%65%72%40%79%61%68%6f%6f%2e%63%6f%6d%22%3e%6c%6d%7a%65%69%67%6c%65%72%40%79%61%68%6f%6f%2e%63%6f%6d%3c%2f%61%3e%27%29%3b')) and will be sure to keep checking this message board for responses.  This could also be a great way to raise money for your favorite animal charity by getting sponsors for your run.  I'm thinking about trying to raise money for Animal Acres, a fabulous farm animal sanctuary just outside of the LA. 

Think about it...this could be a great goal for 2010!!!!!!

Cheers,
Liz

HaHa I was just about to sign up for the LA marathon! I'd love to join you!

Woo hoo!  Can you shoot me an email at eval(unescape('%64%6f%63%75%6d%65%6e%74%2e%77%72%69%74%65%28%27%3c%61%20%68%72%65%66%3d%22%6d%61%69%6c%74%6f%3a%6c%6d%7a%65%69%67%6c%65%72%40%79%61%68%6f%6f%2e%63%6f%6d%22%3e%6c%6d%7a%65%69%67%6c%65%72%40%79%61%68%6f%6f%2e%63%6f%6d%3c%2f%61%3e%27%29%3b')) and let me know how to keep in touch with you?  This should be a lot of fun!  Well at least as much fun as running 26.2 can be...I did a 22 mile training run for my next race yesterday and it sure felt like a long way!
