I am $50 away from reaching my $500 goal for the BIG Swim this Saturday. Many thanks to the many Maniacs who sponsored me!
Edit: thanks to some generous Maniacs, I am now over my goal!

I'll set up my official pledge sheet on May 1, so I haven't started yet.

I wasn't sure if your posted question related to a specific Maniac-related fundraiser or whether it was for runners doing fundraising more generally. If the former, nothing to report. If the latter, I am currently just over $5000 raised for the Canadian Diabetes Association as part of Team Diabetes New York City marathon, Nov 06. Every donation appreciated and acknowledged at: www.petermcdrunning.blogspot.com

there are a number of RM members, like yourself, that are fundraising. Holly has set up a page (under the "Members" menu, above)... if you want to be added to that list, send a pm to holly (klewlis)

Ahhh, but of course!

I used to run. All the time.
Now? Notsomuch.
I'm still a runner, though.
Life is fluid and ever changing. I am too.

no worries, you have lots of time. :)
btw, I swear by the "sitting at a table in walmart" method of fundraising. Extremely easy and effective. I made up to $400/day doing that. :)

Announcement - NEW fundraising goal!
***Announcing my NEW goal of $2500!!!***
Having reached the $2000 minimum I need to be permitted to do the walk, I have chosen to raise my fundraising goal by $500. Why? Well, my sister, Rebecca, has challenged me to do so. If I do, then she is going to get a pink ribbon tattoo on, what else? Her breast, of course! (She was nice enough not to stipulate something I have to do if I don't make the goal....
Anyone who knows Becky knows she has a soft spot for body art, so I am thrilled that she has decided to make herself a canvas for the Weekend to End Breast Cancer. In turn, I will do my best to a) raise the money and b) walk my butt off on August 12 and 13. She has agreed to let me post a photo of her artwork (tasteful, of course!) on www.runningmania.com, after it is completed.
Oh, and I will be directing Becky here so that she can see I've made my goal public.
Thanks, Bec!
