Picture
Would you like to become a part of history? Here is a great way to leave your mark and help raise money for LifeStriders Therapeutic Riding Center.

Guinness Book of World Records Attempt to Benefit LifeStriders special needs therapeutic riding program:

Would you like to run a half marathon connected to 110 LifeStriders supporters, and help raise funds to enable the special needs programming at LifeStriders?  Well, this is your luckiest day!  Sign up for the Waukesha trailbreaker half marathon at http://www.active.com/running/waukesha-wi/trailbreaker-marathon-2012 and then let us know you would like to be a part of the effort using the form to the right.



The latest from Robin

Greetings,

Come to think of it, St. Nick’s is to ½ marathons what Santa Claus is to marathons. You know, some of the suspense, some of the preparations , some of the hoopla without all the worry, hassle or seeing family members that you’d rather not. (Mom, if you’re reading this, I’m just kidding…)

Well, that’s all about to change because our Guinness World Record attempt for the “Most Runners Linked Together to Complete a ½ Marathon” is sure to make our effort an epic event worthy of a marathon season full of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza and Festivus blended together. (And staying with the holiday theme, only 25 shopping days left until the fiscal cliff- maybe gift an Energizer Bunny, but not a combative one lest you be charged with accessory to battery.)

We’ve already got 84 runners who have committed to become running legends. Many have actually already registered for the Trailbreaker http://www.active.com/event_detail.cfm?event_id=2067151 and circled back with me to confirm they are signed-up. If you’ve got running buddies, family members, frenimies or peeps you’d like to loop in to our wonderful world of world records, now is the time! We need approximately an additional 25 runners, so let’s get to work for the next 12 days recruiting and transforming “ 10 lords a leaping” into “10 lords a linking” and “8 maids a milking” into “8 maids a ½ marathoning.”

Coach Bri has been in her workshop with the training elves concocting ridiculously effective plans to ensure even Bob Cratchit could effortlessly complete this journey. Mr. Potter and the folks at the Bailey Building and Loan have been officially designated as the repository for the fund raising proceeds on behalf of our designated charitable beneficiaries, LifeStriders and/or Jenny Crain’s “Make it Happen” fund.

Our official keeper of the records, Mary Beth Fournier, has agreed to meticulously document all of the proceedings and race day events in accordance with the strict world record requirements. (Yes, Virginia, there is a Guinness Clause!)

Have the best early holiday weekend ever!

Robin
