Tomorrow, the Green Girl will be dedicating her St. Patrick's Day Trail Half Marathon to the victims and survivors of the Japan earthquake and tsunami by participating in the Run For Japan challenge.
I will be doing this along with two Sole Runners, Barb and Miyuki.
Run For Japan's goal is to cover the circumference of the earth, 24,901 miles, in 28 days.
Run For Japan is asking runners to dedicate one run to the people of Japan and donate at least one unit of their home currency per mile. The hope is that there will at least one run dedicated from every country in the world.
Great idea..I'll look into this!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is really awesome. Such a great idea!! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great way to raise some funds. I'll do this for one of my runs this weekend too.
ReplyDeleteI am in.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! I hope you had a great run.
ReplyDeleteGo go Green Girl.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea! I can't run (booo) but I did purchase a top at Forever21.com, where ALL purchases yesterday went to those in Japan.
ReplyDeleteAll the best!
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea.
ReplyDeleteSaw this on DailyMile. I'll see if I can't get a group together!
ReplyDeletethat's a really good cause!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! You rock. Living Social is also doubling $5 donations to the red cross for relief efforts in Japan. https://livingsocial.com/deals/32115-5-for-10-donation-to-red-cross-relief-efforts
ReplyDeleteGreat Idea...I'm going to see if I can retroactively dedicate (as in, from my run this morning), as it may be a few more days before I can run again.
