DC Happy Hour Fundraiser
The 4 DC-area members of the CZC Runs Disney Planning Committee recently had a Happy Hour Fundraiser at Mister Days in Clarendon, VA. We had a table with information about CZC and CZC Runs Disney, and accepted donations. We raised nearly $200 to go toward our $50,000 fundraising goal :)

The true miracle
The
Road is not always smooth or flat. There are times when it may seem as though
you are running away from who you are much more than running toward who you
want to be. There may be times when your
body betrays you and your spirit abandons you.
The path to enlightenment is not clearly marked.
But
millions of runners have gone before you. Each of them has faced the same fear and
uncertainty. Each of them has learned,
as you will, the truth in the Penguin Credo.
For all of us, the miracle
isn’t that we finish, the miracle is that we have the courage to start.
-John “The Penguin”
