Day 1-Virginia Beach

Fans, Friends, Followers, Supporters,

After months and months of planning, June 14th has finally arrived. We hit the road bright and early yesterday morning en route to our first stop, Virginia Beach. Please enjoy our intro video and our feature article from the daily news at the bottom. We’ll be posting daily photos and videos so be sure to log in everyday and tell your friends.

We can’t thank everyone enough who has helped achieved where we are today. Without all of you, none of this would be possible. A special thank you goes out to Drink Give. Do Good. for hooking us up with a ton of water and energy drink. We’d also like to thank These Pistons Give Life for hooking us up with custom designed t-shirts. You guys rock!

Marathon Success!

This was our first year being an affiliate charity with the Pittsburgh Marathon. We had a great time and were able to fund-raise over $2500.00. We can’t thank all of our runners and volunteers who made this possible. We are looking forward to an even bigger team next year. Thanks to all who participated and congratulations on your runs. Enjoy the photos.

He introduced us to signing up as a charity for CTS and has brought in over $500 worth of pledges thus far. Thanks RON! Ron is pretty serious about the marathon and The Call to Serve. He even got a tattoo to show how pumped he is.

New Video Up.

We’ve been having a lot of screenings lately of the documentary. Eventually, we’ll post it on the website but for now, enjoy this video. It highlights some of our experiences along the road.

Thank you Skysight Photography

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Autumn of Skysight Photography for allowing us to have a documentary screening at her studio. The film was perceived extremely well and we are excited to start showing it at colleges. Thanks to everyone who came out.

Still snowed in..

It’s still snowing in Pittsburgh. The RV aka The Warrior is surrounded by 2.5 feet of snow. We cleaned her up a bit yesterday. Enjoy!

CTS Meets the Pittsburgh Marathon

You heard it here. We are running the Pittsburgh Marathon (just the half) and are registered as an affiliate charity. It’s kind of a big deal, we think. We need runners. It’s a great way to get involved and it’s for a good cause. You do not have to run full marathon. You can do a half or a relay with 5 other people. We are asking our runners to pledge $200. This number is not set in stone. If you are unable to raise that amount, we still want to run with you. Support is raised through family and friends. Fundraising deadline is April 1st. We will send you sample letters to send out. It’s pretty simple. If interested please contact adam@thecalltoserve.org ASAP. By registering with The Call to Serve at pittsburghmarathon.com (register code: SERVE2010), you are guranteed:

ENTRY INTO MARATHON (Official Dick’s Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon bib number)
INVITATION TO PRE-MARATHON PASTA DINNER (the night before the marathon)
PRIORITY RACE PACKET PICK-UP (marathon weekend – no standing in lines!)
RACE-DAY SUPPORT (Includes area to meet before race, food and water, cheering groups,
complimentary post-race massage and more)

To Motivate you, we made this Video. Enjoy.
