The weather was
fantastic, the turnout was great, more people are now mito-aware and the results
are in....
We had 37 registered participants (about half runners and half
walkers) from age 5 to about age 60. Our entry fee was $20, so total raised from
entry fees was $740.00 and adding in the $300.00 as contributions, the grand
total raised was $1,040.00 !!
Splitting the funds evenly, both "Mito-Action" and "The
Mitochondrial Research Guild" at Seattle Children's Hospital will each receive
$520.00.
Many, many thanks to all the runners, walkers, parents,
contributors, and to Officer Travis Ross of the Kent Police Department
for helping make my fundraiser a success !!
