Hey guys!
Back at the beginning of the month Mattie made a goal for 2015 to run more races and to volunteer more, participating more in the community. I suggested fundraising for an organization by creating a Comfy & Confident team and it just so happens that we did just that…
We registered a team to participate in the Cupid’s Undie Run which is a mile(ish) run in your bedroom-best (ie: undies) on Valentine’s Day weekend. The run is a charity event to raise money for the Children’s Tumor Foundation to end Neurofibromatosis (NF). NF is a genetic disorder that causes tumors to grow on nerves throughout the body, causing blindness, deafness, learning disabilities and severe chronic pain.
There is a Cupid’s Undie Run in cities all over the US. Click here to see if there is one in a city near you. The Boston run is held Fenway Park on February 15th. Yes you run through Fenway in your undies, in February! No, there is no gaurentee the Red Sox will be there.
Last year I had the pleasure of volunteering because I couldn’t run and I made a promise to myself and to my friend Lindsey Norse that I would run it this year and raise money to help end this devastating disease. Mattie and I, and a few other friends, have joined together to run in our undies and raise money for this great cause.
If you are in the Boston area we would be so happy to have you join our team. Check out our fundraising page to JOIN, learn more about the event or even donate if you are feeling generous! But really… please JOIN OUR TEAM… we would LOVE to have you there! It is going to be a blast!!
If you’re not in Boston, see if there is a run in your city and consider joining. Running for a good cause… you can’t beat it!
Join our team for the @Cupidsundierun benefitting @ChildrensTumor Foundation! #Boston #Runchat…
