My personal message:
Hello all, I had a very successful run, in many ways, with the Wellness Center. As you know I ran in the Big Sur Marathon on April 27th to raise money and awareness for them. And, of course, our family has been benefiting from the many services that they have to offer. The run was beautiful, exhilarating, uplifting and I felt like I could go for a few more miles. I came in just before the winner of the the men's marathon, which was funny because I thought the spectators were cheering that hard for every Joe that crossed the line, including me! I was showing off and carrying on. It was a great day to race! The run is over, but if you would still like to donate, we would be extremely grateful.
