2012 Boston Marathon
Seeking Boston Marathon Runners for Team MetroLacrosse!
On April 16th, 2012, runners will lace up their sneakers and embark on a 26.2 mile trek from Hopkinton to Boston with hopes of completing the world’s most famous marathon; the Boston Marathon. Some will run to beat personal-best times, other to lose weight or win it all. This year, there will be four people running to support the youth and teens of MetroLacrosse.
Will one of those four be you?
- Are you committed to inspiring personal, education, and athletic success among MetroLacrosse youth and teens?
- Are you passionate about giving all youth and teens equal access to sports regardless of where they live or the resources of their schools and communities?
- Are you motivated to make a difference for MetroLacrosse teens who are striving to be the first in their family to attend college?
- Are you so motivated that you would run 26.2 miles and raise money to make it all possible?
MetroLacrosse is looking for four individuals committed to raising funds for MetroLacrosse and running the Boston Marathon. Runners will be expected to raise between $5,000 - $10,000 each for our organization. Are you the right one to take on the challenge?
