Running my heart out for Girls on the Run!

From Stephanie Ludwig:

Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters of Girls on the Run of Northern Arizona,

Last week I got a bunch of emails from parents expressing gratitude that their girls had the opportunity to participate in the fall season of Girls on the Run and our 5K in Flagstaff on November 20. I am often moved to tears, and humbled, to have the opportunity to be a part of Girls on the Run myself, to get to see the powerful difference it makes in the lives of girls we touch, and to feel the transformative effect it has had on my own life as a woman.

Those emails inspired me to hurry up and get this email out to you! Since September, I have been training with Girls on the Run SoleMates, our national charity running program, to complete PF Chang's Rock 'n 'Roll Marathon on January 16, 2011. My goal is to finish my first marathon in years at a pace that is comfortable, and, dare I say, FUN, for me - very much in the spirit of Girls on the Run! :)

Please consider making a $26 tax-deductible donation to my SoleMates fundraising effort today, to help me raise $2620 to bring Girls on the Run to more girls next fall. If you make a donation of $100 or more, as a special incentive, I will personally bake and deliver a batch of holiday cookies to your door between December 22-24!

Thank you for being a part of my life, and the life of Girls on the Run of Northern Arizona, this year!

With Gratitude,
Stephanie Ludwig
