Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

I have decided to run the NYC Marathon as a tribute to my father Harold Fuhrman who suffered a major stroke on October 14th, 2008 and passed away on January 19th, 2009.  He fought so hard to try and recover from his stroke.  My family and I have been doing volunteer work for the National Stroke Association which is located in Colorado and I am running on the National Stroke Association team.

I am not a runner, but have been training for about 15 weeks now.  The longest run I completed prior to this marathon was the Boulder Bolder 10(k) in 1990.  I am excited to support the NSA and run through the streets of NYC including Brooklyn where my dad was born.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Best,

Mark Fuhrman
