No matter which option, run or walk, every team runs across the Golden Gate Bridge! Sounds like a great adventure, a great cause and a great way to get some miles under the belt.

 

Anyone interested? Check the site out: www.relay.com. We're not looking to take the world by storm. Just to run some miles and support a cause. So far we have a quite a few people interested in the walk, and just 3 or 4 interested in the run. We can make two teams, two walk teams... whatever! it's just too cool to pass up!

 

If anyone has questions, let me know. I promise, if you sign up, I'll let you guys pick the leg that I have to run/walk! :)

I think this is an awesome idea. It would be great if we could get a team going.
