A letter I received from The Medici Family yesterday:
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let all of you know of the event we are organizing in memory of Olivia. On April 22, 2007 we are hosting the 1st Annual Olivia Medici Memorial 5K Run/Walk--A Reason To Race!. The event will be held in Beaverton, Oregon at 8405 SW Creekside Place near the Old Fanno Farmhouse. Proceeds of the event will directly benefit the families and sick children at Duke University Hospital and OHSU/Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. For registration and event information you can log onto www.racecenter.com. You can register by selecting the "register" tab at the top of the page and scrolling down to the "Olivia Medici Memorial 5K Run/Walk" on April 22, 2007. Olivia’s website, www.oliviaswish.com, will be updated soon with journaling and new information regarding the race and "The Olivia School."
We hope to see you there!
Annalee & Mark
If you're in the Portland area--or could be on April 22--I hope you'll consider participating. And if you're a dummy like me, you're probably wondering if 5K is do-able. I looked it up; 5K = 3.106855961 miles. If I can do it, so can you.
