Welcome to Jim's Half-Marathon Fundraising Page
Hi Everyone! I am extremely honored to be running for Tedy's Team® at Disneyland's Half-Marathon Challenge in September.
I will be running both the 10K and the Half-Marathon (on back to back days!) to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease -- matters that have affected all of us personally.
Each dollar that is donated will go to Tedy's Team®, originally founded in 2005, when Tedy Bruschi, former linebacker for the New England Patriots suffered a stroke shortly after winning his 3rd Super Bowl. The mission of Tedy's Team® is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback.
I'd be honored if you would be willing to donate to support this cause, even in any small amount.
I was hoping to raise $25 for each quarter mile I run, and $100 for each mile.
Thank you everyone!
