Call me Ms. Run-Director!

Many of you know that I have participated in the Run for the Cure for the last few years. Well, the other day, I was on Twitter (shocking, I know), and I noticed the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation was looking for Run-Directors for their York Region site. Long story short, I applied, went to the interview, and am happy and proud to annouce that I'm one of the new Co-Run Directors for 2011! It's a volunteer gig, and I'll still maintain my full time job. I'm sure it'll be a lot of work, but equally rewarding as well.

It's still early yet, but it's time to mark your calendars for Sunday, October 2, 2011 for the 3rd annual York Region Run. If you don't run, it's ok! Walkers are more than allowed, and last year, we brought Rex along for the walk too. It's a lot of fun, and for a great cause, of course. I challenge all my family and friends to gather a team and start fundraising. The YR run is still new and young, but it's time to raise the roof, and let people know where we are!

If you're a local business who would like to sponsor the event, let me know! What a great way to reach thousands of people at one great event!
