HERE WE GO!

OK everyone... here is how you can follow along, how you can help and how you can participate in the Run Across New Hampshire this weekend; October 18-19, 2008.

Live on The Web!
National PowerSports has sponsored a Spot Tracker Satellite Tracking Device. With this device, we get our own page through the spot tracker website. There is a link to that page on the RIGHT of this blog. FOLLOW US LIVE! Click on the link and it'll take you to a page where you can view our location.

Live on The Radio!
101.5 FM The HAWK will be updating those within ear shot of our location throughout the entire run. There is also the possibility that we'll entertain phone interviews with the Radio DJ's. Listen to 101.5 FM The HAWK to get the info!

Join us Live!
Our ROUTE is on this blog. Check it out, we've included maps and pertinent info. Come on out to our next aid station and run a few miles with us. We're NOT racing across the state; this is a journey run. We're going to be running 8:35-10:35 min miles over the first half of the run... and probably 15:00-18:00 min miles towards the end (Maybe slower). Come enjoy the journey with us. We'd love the company. We ask that you donate "X" amount of dollars per mile you run with us.

Join us in Concord
On Saturday from 6-9pm, The HAWK will be at Eastern Mountain Sports in Concord, NH. They'll have live music, a bounce house for the kids, food from the Smoke Shack and 20% in the store for those who purchase a raffle ticket to the bike! We'll arrive in Concord during this window (7-8pm) at which point we'll invite you all in a 1 mile parade run around the parking lot before heading off into the night.

Join us in Portsmouth
We hope to be at The Eastern Mountain Sports in Portsmouth, NH on Sunday Morning around 10am. Come on down at register to run the final 10 Miles of our run with us. It'll only cost you a minimum donation of $10 to The Make-A-Wish Foundation of NH. The first 50 runners to register will get an EMS Water Bottle and a Gear Bucks Card. We'll also be raffling off a brand spanking new Hydration pack for those looking for new gear. Get there and register early to join us on the final stretch of our run!

Join us at The Finish!
We'll finish up our 124 mile journey at the Seacoast Science Center at Odiorne Point State Park in Rye. Come on down, its FREE for Make-A-Wish Families. Support Make-A-Wish, found out about their programs, make a donation, support the Seacoast Science Center and witness history as we become the first crazy fools to Run Across NH non-stop. We hope to arrive here around Noon-1pm on Sunday.

How You Can Donate:
1.) Join us on the run and pay per mile, or just hand our crew your donation
2.) Come to EMS in Concord and purchase a raffle ticket
3.) Come to EMS in Portsmouth and register to run.
