You may remember that Chris wheezed around a 10K segment of the Reykjavik, Iceland Marathon in 2005, as a member of TEAM DIABETES CANADA, helping to raise a total of $1.3 million for the Canadian Diabetes Association.
Well - “Stupid is as stupid does”, and just like Forrest Gump, Chris just kept running, and running, and running, and today Chris announced that he and his wife Heather have joined TEAM DIABETES 2007, travelling to Rio de Janerio to compete in the Rio marathon - this time they will complete a half marathon.
Chris and Heather have committed to raising $20,000 for the Association by participating in the run and they are now busy badgering family and friends, current and former clients, legal colleagues, and innocent passersby, for sponsorship donations.
You can sponsor Chris and Heather by donating online (https://ocp.diabetes.ca/cslogin.asp?prId=td&newlogin=true), or by completing a sponsorship form and returning it to Chris with your cheque payable to the Canadian Diabetes Assocation (he’ll even take cash if you’ve got lots of ID!)
Chris thanks you in advance for your support. If you give generously he will think of you fondly as he starts his 5:15 AM workout. If you don’t ---- he may phone you instead!
