June 2010 Letter from Donna
Hello Friends!
You asked for it, and we’ve got it. One of our top requests from you after last year’s race was for more help in finding and booking your travel arrangements. (And oh by the way, if you could save us a buck or two ...) When you talk, we listen. This issue of the 26.2 with Donna newsletter has everything you need to get you to Jacksonville Beach in February, including some great packages that will save you money.
Speaking of saving money, if you already know you are going to join us to FINISH IT next February, now is the time to register. Prices go up on July 1st so you have until midnight June 30th to get in on our lowest pricing. We are trying to raise as much money as we can for breast cancer research and care, so if you want to procrastinate, we won’t complain. We’re just sayin’…
And if you are interested in training for the 26.2 With Donna, find one of our Galloway programs around the country and get started! Ninety-eight percent of people who train with a Galloway group will reach their goal of finishing a marathon or half marathon. The great plus about Jeff’s program is that it will get you there uninjured.
Finally, for those of you following that horrible oil spill in the Gulf, we want you to know that we are keeping a close eye on the developments as well. All of us are sickened and saddened by the images of oil appearing on Florida’s western shores. We are not on the Gulf here in Jacksonville Beach. We are located at the northern most point of the east coast on the Atlantic Ocean. The oil hasn’t affected our beaches, and while it’s possible we may see a tar ball or two before it’s all over, we shouldn’t see any major problems on our shores.
We will, of course, keep you posted on that. Bottom line, we expect our beautiful coastline to be as stunning as always when you arrive here in February for the 4th Annual National Marathon to Finish Breast Cancer.
As always, we appreciate all you do to help us FINISH IT!
See you in February!
Donna
