Fresh Air

Fresh air.

Something that many of us take for granted...

Green grass.

Trees all around.

Riding bikes.

Playing in a backyard.

Gazing at the stars.

Deep breaths of fresh air.

On March 20th, 2011, the Fresh Air Fundraisers will be running the NYC Half-Marathon. If I lived closer, you can bet I'd want to be a part of this...

'The amazing 13.1-mile course takes you through beautiful Central Park, action-packed Times Square and ends with breathtaking finish-line views of the New York City harbor."

Sounds amazing to me!

Even more amazing is what the Fresh Air Fund does to give kids an experience that will forever change them. That will encourage them. That they are sure to not take for granted.

The Fresh Air Fund is looking for runners to join them in fundraising and is also looking for families willing to host children during the summer months.
