You Da Man!!!
HI Chris,
I’m a Boston-area lifer who until last year had never contemplated running anywhere close to 26.2 miles consecutively. However, after what transpired at last year’s marathon (287 days ago), I’ve since changed my mind. I’m running this year in support of the Greg Hill Foundation, which has raised over $385,000 for the victims of last year’s bombings to help pay for medical costs, housing, funerals, counseling, and continued rehabilitation. Given your strong roots to the city, I was hoping you’d consider retweeting a youtube video that I posted to raise awareness about my marathon run. I promise you that I put a lot of work into it, and I think it’s pretty good…
