PHOENIX CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL

P.F. Chang’s Rock ‘N’ Roll Arizona Marathon & ½ Marathon

ROCK-N-ROLL FOR THE PCH KIDS!!!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!! In the spirit of the 2005 Holiday Season, I am asking for your help in raising money for a wonderful cause.

On January 15, 2006, I will be running in the 3rd Annual P.F. Chang's Rock-n-Roll Half-Marathon in Phoenix, AZ. I am participating with the "Miracles in Motion" team sponsored by Phoenix Children's Hospital. I am assisting with fundraising efforts to raise money for PCH. Donations go towards patient care for families who cannot afford medical care. I participated in MIM last year with my dear friend, Dixie Love, who works at PCH. I had a wonderful time raising money for a great charity, meeting new friends, and running in tune to several rockin' bands along the 13.1 mile course.

This will be another great challenge for me. I have run in thirteen half-marathons and the 2002 New York City Marathon, which is perhaps the most significant achievement in my lifetime. It is a daily reminder that I am blessed to have my health and that anything is possible if you work hard enough. This upcoming race will be a great starting point for me in achieving my goal of running another full marathon in 2006, which I'm determined and hopeful that I will do.
Thanks to many supportive friends and family, I raised almost $1000 for the kids at PCH last year. This year I would like to do the same. With your help, I'd like to raise $1000 or more for the kids at PCH. Donating through this site is simple, fast, and secure. And of course, it's tax-deductible. I would greatly appreciate everyone's help in reaching my goal. I will do the running! :-) If you would like to issue a check for your donation, you can send it to the below address. Please reference my name in the MEMO section, so that I receive credit towards my fund-raising goals. Checks can be made payable to: Phoenix Children's Hospital Foundation Attn: Angela Eliason 1920 E. Cambridge, Suite 200 Phoenix, AZ 85006 Thank you very much for taking the time to visit my page and for your support. Please forward this to anyone else you think might be interested in making a donation too! Your support and generosity are much appreciated! Happy Holidays to everyone!! Best wishes, Christopher Nichols
