2006 AIDS Run

I thought about what my next run would be, and I have decided to run in the 2006 AIDS Run/Walk 5K. This will not be a race, but a run for a cause I feel very strongly about.

The AIDS Foundation of Chicago organizes this event every year, and the proceeds are split among AIDS charities throughout the Chicago area.

I am dedicating my run to my friend Dave WAgle, who died in 1994. Dave and I went through middle and high school together. We reconnected years later when I learned he was ill. I treasured the time I spent with him. We would do lunch, go to movies, have coffee or just hang out. It was at a point he needed a friend, and I was happy to be there for him.

I would love it if any of you could sponsor me in this race. My initial goal is to raise $300. However, I would love to raise more.
