Pints to Pasta

Once again it's time to sign up for the Pints to Pasta run and it's for a couple good causes.

This is one race worth running because it's giving a portion of its proceeds to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training AND The Boys and Girls Clubs and there are more than a couple great sponsors to help kick this off.

The Old Spaghetti Factory and Widmer Brothers Brewing are a couple of the tastiest sponsors - thus the meaning behind the name: Pints to Pasta.

It's a fun 10k run that starts at Adidas (another sponsor) and the run begins on a downhill slope :) then it's off to the waterfront and finally the runners are making feet to the festive food at the Spaghetti Factory.

Plus for those who don't want to chug a beer at 10 in the morning, there's always a cold glass of Jamba Juice waiting at the finish line.

The run is on September 11th so you still have time to sign up. I hope to see you there and I've got my fingers crossed that the weather will hold out and we'll have a little more sunshine for our run.

Pints to Pasta

These races always start at the butt-crack of dawn. I mean, it's an ungodly time that you have to get up and get going to be a part of these "fun"d raisers. If only they could start at noon. Then, I wouldn't look sooooo tired. But they are still loads of laughter and lots of fun.

Sunday my sister and I ran in Pints to Pasta. It's a 10k to help support a couple good causes. The proceeds go to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training AND The Boys and Girls Clubs.

Every community has these types of events and if you don't want to run or walk in the event, you can always volunteer. It's a lot of fun and it does a lot of good for your community.

Think about volunteering and making a difference.
