Hunger is always a problem. I read that there are more prisoners in the U.S. than there are farmers. We need to put people to work.

That's definately a hugh part of the problem in this country. Things have got to change!
The Marine Corps Marathon went well-Had my best time ever. This week doing the Disney Goofy series. 5K with all my kids on Friday, 1/2 marathon with my daughters Tory and Cassy on Saturday and the marathon myself on Sunday. Just want to finish those 3 races and have fun with my family-not looking for any personal bests. Fund raising for 2012 just getting started-like to set a personal best there though! LOL.
Have a good 2012 everyone-especially yu Shania! DOC

Just signed up for the Vegas Marathon. Will be there for Shania's opening but the trip's also about running for the Miles For Meals program and raising money for Feeding America and Kid's Cafe. There is also half marathon as well and it looks really cool. Anyone else interested in burning some sneaker rubber and running down the hunger in Vegas?? Doc

Just got my tickets to the Shania Kids Can benefit. Haven't gotten tickets to the show yet but training hard for the Marathon. I'm hoping to use the money raised for this run from the Miles For Meals running club for the Shania Kids Can program. Definately looking forward to seeing all you that are going again. Check out the marathon site so you can plan around it as alot of roads will be closed. This is a Rock and Roll Marathon so there will be alot of great music and definately alot of freaks running as elvis and everything else Vegas for this marathon. Doc

I think by enthusiasm and commitment you mean stupidity and lack of common sense for running 26.2 miles when I could be going to a second Shania show but I appreciate the sentiment!

Nice hearing from you and definately looking forward to seeing you again-Doc

Wow! So awesome to read that you will actually run the marathon.

I have been thinking of ways to raise some money myself, but there is not enough time left. Unfortunately. But I can always send money to the Kids Can with paypal, so I will figure something out someday.
I won't be running the marathon along with you. I would never make it... I would if I could do it on horseback, but I just asked my horse, and she said she had some other plans for December 2nd, so she won't be joining me on my trip, haha!

I really respect the fact that you will run this marathon. And I'll be cheering for you somewhere along the track!

Re:

Doc, the best to you and your plans. I am looking forward to meeting you in Vegas. I have had the same idea that you have, but it doesn't require running; its about riding a bicycle.

In the summer of 2014 I will be turning 60 and instead of my family and friends planning a party for me, I'm going to do it myself. My plan is to ride my bicycle from Phoenix to Las Vegas (350+ miles) and have people sponser me by dedicating a certain amount for each mile I ride.

All the money I raise will be going to "Shania Kids Can"

Re:

Steve, thank you very much. My plan at this time is (hopefully they are there) to meet some of the people that are in charge of Shania's charity at her party after the concert. I'll be proposing my idea to them and maybe they could help with the planning (i.e. setting up a blog, facebook page, paperwork, etc.). The good news I found out is the lawyers that are responible for this charity is located less than 10 miles from my apartment.

I really don't know that you need anyones permission. You can do your ride and gather donations written to Shania Kids Can ltd and donate those after the ride to the fund with information on the donators so the charity can send something to the donators thanking them for the donation that can be used for tax purposes. That's what I've done with Kid Cafe and Second Harvest/Feeding America in the past.

For my run in Vegas that I am doing for "Shania Kids Can LTD" anyone who wants to donate toward the run from these boards can do that directly thru Tracy from what I understand. I definately appreciate any and all of those donations!!!!!

Per the run itself -It is coming on quickly during a very bad time of the year for me with Thanksgiving today, Penn State Home games the last 2 week and this coming Saturday and to top it off I just got back from hunting in the mountains of West Virginia with a cold that is putting the kibosh to my training. Sad to say there is a time limit on this marathon so I have to be on top of my game. So far I think we've collected close to $1000 for the charity but hopefully well do better before the run-Doc

Re:

Doc, the reason for meeting them would be getting permission (if I need it) to use the logo from the charity for any blogs or handouts that I create. I'm not sure I'll need it, but from a legality standpoint, it wouldn't hurt to ask.

lol-thanks but no thanks
I do my best not to think too much about a marathon as it approaches and I definately don't like reading about what others are doing as the run get closer-Just freaks me out I guess. These things are 99% mental and 1% putting one foot in front of the other anyway. I'd much rather read about Shania in Vegas than that long run thing in Vegas anyway! Doc
