The Extra Mile Run 2009 is an opportunity for your love of running to be utilized to change the life of an inner-city child. Become an Extra Mile Runner and commit to the 2009 California International Marathon. Each Extra Mile Runner can run to raise awareness and financial support for each child enrolled at Oak Ridge Elementary School. Located in one of California’s roughest inner-cities, children are in desperate need of academic supplies, enhanced nutrition, after school programming, and on-going health care.
In December of 2009, nearly 10,000 runners will pour down the streets from Historic Folsom to Downtown Sacramento in the California International Marathon. More than four hundred of those runners will run on behalf of an individual child from Oak Ridge Elementary. Our goal is to match one runner to every student.
IMAGINE RUNNING ON BEHALF OF A CHILD IN NEED.
IMAGINE EVERY CHILD HAVING AN ADVOCATE WILLING TO GO THE EXTRA MILE.
YOU CAN BE THE ONE.
If you are not able to run the entire 26.2 mile race, two runners can partner to run a two-person relay. Or grab two more runners and divide the 26.2 mile course into a four-person relay. Regardless of your ability, begin training today and secure your spot as an Extra Mile Runner.
