I need your help folks from Maryland

I made a post a couple months ago, I think I started posting this back in November.  It was about the Baltimore Survivor Run.  It is on June 8th, and I have trained so hard for this.  I was told today by my surgeon that I can not do this run or even walk the run.  I would LOVE it if someone would go in my place, I was running for weight loss surgery if was my cause and drive in doing my first 5K.  It is only 3 miles but to me it was a big jump.  I am so upset about this.  It is all paid for, I would be there to watch and I would help you pick up the info pack, I just need someone to run this for me.  Last week was so unexpected with my emergency surgery.  Yes this puts me in a funk like no other. Any takers Please!   I know there will be other races but I wanted to do this one and wanted it to count.

A 7-Mile Race and 3-Mile Run/Walk Presented by the Active Survivors Network

Everything you need to know:

• The 4th largest running race in Baltimore and growing
• The only established race with a competitive division of survivors of illness. 160 survivor athletes are expected to compete from 20 different states
• The only race in Baltimore with permits to run on the promenade and through Fort McHenry National Park
• Named “Best Cause Race” in the Mid-Atlantic by MetroSports magazine

Date and times: June 8, 2008. The events will begin as follows: 7-mile: 8:00AM 3-mile: 8:35AM (approximate). Wheel chair divisions will begin 10 minutes before each distance (7-mile 7:50AM and 4-mile 8:25AM) The 3-mile event will start approximately 35 minutes AFTER the beginning of the 7-mile. This will help congestion on the bridges and allow the 3-milers to see the race leaders. Exact times will be determined on flow. Note: If you are a 10 minute miler or more, you may merge with the 3-milers. The course from between mile three through seven is the same for both distances.
