Running the Marine Corps Marathon with your mom/son: PRICELESS
When Yazar asked me earlier this year if I would run the Marine Corps Marathon (MCM) with him, I didn't hesitate (much!) before saying yes. I'm thrilled (1) that my teenager wants to do something with me and (2) that he will reap the benefits of marathon training at a much younger age than I did. As any endurance athlete knows, the discipline, confidence and long view you develop preparing for an event like the MCM strengthen all aspects of your life.
Yaya and I are running for the Anacostia Watershed Society (AWS), the only environmental group among the MCM's charity partners and a Catalogue of Philanthropy featured nonprofit for 2012-2013. If you live near the Anacostia or one of its 13 tributaries (Northwest Branch, Northeast Branch, Sligo Creek, Paint Branch, Little Paint Branch, Indian Creek, Beaverdam Creek, Still Creek, Dueling Creek, Lower Beaverdam, Hickey Run, Watts Branch and Pope Branch), AWS is working to make your rivers clean, swimmable and fishable. Imagine that!
Whether you dream of clean rivers, appreciate intergenerational adventures, or just plain like me and/or Yaya, we hope you'll donate a few dollars to AWS on our behalf by July 31 (see detailed instructions below).
Thanks for your support!
