Project 1.27 is an official Charity Partner with this year’s 2010 Kaiser Permanente Colfax Marathon! This is a great opportunity to get out there, get fit, help or just support. You can run/walk/volunteer/sponsor this event! Each Project 1.27 participant who earns sponsorships in excess of $250 or more will get a free widget.

Chris Padbury, our astute (that means fat and flabby) Project 1.27 President is going to run the Marathon too! Come on! If he can do it so can you!

But, if you’d rather not run/walk/volunteer then sign up to sponsor Chris! $10/mile?

Do you want to (run) , (walk) , or volunteer?
