This year I'm coming back from a right ankle injury to run in the Marin County 10k on Sunday morning, April 30th. This will be my first run of the year and the first time running in this event! As always, I try to incorporate running in an event to help raise money. In this run, I'm raising funds for the Sustainable Sports Foundation . The Sustainable Sports Foundation addresses the need to promote local athletic events that encourage a healthy lifestyle and supports the values of sustainability and giving back to the community. The Sustainable Sports Foundation donates all net proceeds to give as many children as possible from low-income families in our community the opportunity to learn to swim, and be safe in the water. Join me in my fundraising efforts by making a donation today! http://www.active.com/donate/sustainablesports/Fundraise4Edgar   Mahalo -Thanks!
