Run or Walk for Change

I've mentioned in an earlier post that I started running. As a result of that, my kids, husband, and even family members have found motivation to start running. Mix that with the need to support something good, and you've got the perfect combination of staying active for a cause. 

The past few months I've gotten involved in different events such as bowl-a-thons, walk-a-thons, or races. There are a few sites that you can browse through to see what events are taking place in your area and figure out which ones fit what you believe in. Maybe it is Cancer. Maybe it is an organization that you want to support. Maybe it is for a specific cause such as being healthy or staying fit. Some events you can even help raise money for, getting your community and friends alike involved.

What are some causes or organizations that you would walk or run for? Where do you look to find the events?
