Come Relay Around The Mall!

By Maribel Quezada for Spark Media

You don't need to be a runner to be on our team this October.

Doctor Larry Maxwell, Chairman of the Department of OB-GYN at the Inova Fairfax Hospital in northern Virginia is hoping to draw attention on the mall this October. The goal? To run 100 mile relay around the national mall 24 hours per day for 4 days straight.

According to Dr Maxwell, this is an effort to promote the Race to End Women’s Cancer scheduled for November 6 2011 in Washington DC, and the band N.E.D. featured in the upcoming documentary Dancing with N.E.D. "We are recruiting folks willing to run five or 10 mile segments in a grass roots demonstration." says Dr. Maxwell.

There is still time to sign up and help make this movement a success. Remember, you don't have to be a marathon runner. These are regular people in all levels of fitness who just want to be a part of something meaningful. And if you were looking for an excuse to shape up, here's your motivation! Come join us from October 21 through  the 24th on the National Mall.
