This should be a fun one. You can walk or run it. It would be great to have a big number of small participants who have benefitted from the services that PMRI have provided. I'll start working on the PMRI staff to get them to join in. What's your excuse? Maybe we can get some of those surgeons /plastic surgeons / and personal doctors out to join us. Evreyone that particpates wins this one. If you can't compete, you can still get out and volunteer.

It's a good one plan for. You have plenty of time and there will probably be a lot of walkers and runners.
Out and back course through the Westover Hills neighborhoods. This is a fairly flat course from what I am told. My running coach and I may run it next week to check it out. I'm trying to contact PMRI to see if they can hand out extra trinkets for RNY and LapBand participants.
You can register through races2run.com, or save a few dollars by registering at Delaware Running Company in Greenville (just down from PMRI). If you register by April 7th it's only $15, $20 after that.
Hope to see you there. I'll definitely be running.
