On May 2nd, 2009, I ran my career best 5K (25 minutes 32 seconds) for Run For Life – a race to end Lou Gehrig’s disease. So far, the best tagline I had seen for charity was “Give a little, care a lot”. I found another great one today – dedicated towards people who have been affected by Lou Gehrig’s disease – “Celebrate a Life, Imagine a Cure”. Awesome!!! I also saw couple of runners wearing the funniest T-shirt saying “A Drinking Club with a Running Problem”. Funny!!!! It was a great experience. Details at http://www.cureforals.com/

On Apr 25, 2009, I ran the Jay Cullen Memorial 5K with my Ironman friend Roger Whitney. It was my career best 26 minutes and 18 seconds run. (6th out of 25 in age group and 58th out of 162 overall). Results at www.jaycullen5K.com.

On Apr 18, 2009, I ran the Water for the World run to raise funds for clean drinking water for all people in the world. Contaminated water is a leading cause of deaths in developing countries.
