I will be doing this again this year. Info in this link http://www.donoralliance.org/info-page-41

Does anyone want to join me and do this too?

This is to support Organ and Tissue donation which saves lives.

I myself am a Heart Transplant almost 11 years now (June 24th 1998). Without having the transplant I wouldn't be here to enjoy this awesome sport of motorcycles without it.

So you are like in the movie "Untamed Heart" with Christian Slater and Marisa Tomei? Slater had a heart transplant and his mother always told him is was a babboon heart or something like that.....circa 1993ish.

Seriously though - that is great.

Ya I am not a fast runner either or really a runner. If we get enough people together I am sure we could get a team going.

Ok it seems setting up a team really takes alot of work and I can't figure it out. I am all signed up and encourage other to do the same even without a team. This is a great cause that Truly saves lifes.

Well we had a great time at Donor Dash this past Sunday. Over 2900 people particapated. According the website results Tipsy finished 1234 while I and the family finished 1612. (I never said we were runners.) This really was an awesome event and hope we can actually form a team next year. Thanks Tipsy for inviting us to join you!
