Iraq Marathon/Charity Event
Posted by Dorkafork Tomorrow, Dec. 10, American troops will be participating in a marathon on a base in Tikrit. Many will be running to support TAPS (Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors), an organization that aids the families of those who gave their life for their country. It may be too late to sponsor a runner, particularly if you miss this post this weekend, but a general donation can be made here. More information can be found here. (Note: To avoid any confusion, this does not seem to be the same marathon set up by Major Megan McClung, mentioned in a previous post. Participants in this marathon get credited for a marathon in Honolulu, whereas the race mentioned in regards to Major McClung is a satellite race for the Marine Corps Marathon in Arlington.)
