Celebrate World Run Day

Saturday November 7, 2009

Runners around the world are getting ready the annual World Run Day tomorrow. More than 1,600 charity runners across the U.S. are already registered to participate in the event, which asks runners to celebrate running and donate to a local charity. Many participants will choose their own course to run for the day, while others will participate in World Run Day group events, held from San Francisco to New York City.

Now in its 11th year, World Run Day has raised money for over 1,000 charities in the United States alone. Runners can decide which charity they want their donations to benefit. It's not too late to participate in World Run Day -- check out the World Run Day site to find out about group events or how to run on your own.
