Actually, Nathan is running. I’ll probably serve our cause better from the sidelines.
On Saturday, Nov. 19, Nathan will be running the half marathon here in High Point as part of the annual North Carolina Marathon.
He originally hoped to run the marathon with Gwendolyn Strong’s team in Santa Barbara on Nov. 12, but California is a long way, and so is a full marathon.
So we’re excited to be forming a team for Callie, in partnership with the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation, to help raise money for SMA research.
About five people have already expressed interest in running the 5K with our team.
If you’re interested in joining Callie’s team, contact us at hello@calliegolden.org. There’s an option for a marathon (26.2 miles), half-marathon (13.1 miles) and 5K (3.1 miles). Take your pick.
You can register for the race all the way up to a week before the race. For more information about the marathon itself you can go to ncmarathon.org.
We will end SMA — one day, one person, one mile, one step at a time.
Scott and I would be thrilled to be a part of the team for the half marathon. It’s not exactly recommended that I go run a half marathon after just doing my first full two weeks before, but I’ll risk it for Callie! Scott had intended to run the half anyway! I bet we can get several others from church to join the team as well!
Love you guys.
How exciting!!!! The Verdis love to run. I hope we can all be a part of Callie’s Team in November. We miss you all.
With Love, Kathy
I know a couple of others from church running that race i will see if they are not on team and ask them to join yours. As for the race i have a wedding at church that day or i would do the mile before fainting
Christy and Nathan,
I don’t think I can run down the block! But I will be happy to cheer from the sidelines!
