Thank you to the approximately 1700 finishers and 200 volunteers at the 2009 Just A Short Run

who made the day a success!

Go to www.runhigh.com for full results

With a record crowd, that just missed hitting the 2000 person registered cap, we had over 450 more finishers than last year. Including the last minute regsitrations and the support of some great sponsors, we are estimating that once all the bills are paid the Three Rivers Runners Club, our non-profit running club partner, will make a $14,000 final payment to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. In addition, as part of our race agreements we will also make donations to our volunteer groups of approximately $3,500 for coming out and being there for the runners for 6-8 hours.

We hope you all enjoyed the race. We had a few glitches this year, but overall we hope you felt it went well. If you have ideas on how to improve the event, please send them to director@justashortrun.net.

FYI, We are working on becoming a "green" certified race so the recycled shorts you received this year are just the first step.

As we are attempting to become a "Green Certified" Race, we will only offer online registration in 2010. This will save over 7000 8.5"x14" paper applications, stamps, labels, and envelopes.

In addition we are exploring other options to green the race including possible elimination of bottled water on race day. If you still want to register by paper we will have a paper application to download beginning on 5/1/09.

We will continue the recycled shorts and shirts offered by our 2009 clothing sponsor Oragen and look to add other recycled products to our needs.

We are not only thankful to Andrew Butcher and his staff from Gtech for their donation of all the chips, cookies and other goodies after the race, but we are hopeful to add other similar "Green Companies" to our list of sponsors in 2010.

Therefore, if your company is "green oriented",has a specific "green mission" like GTech, or just want to help us keep getting greener, than we would love to have you as a sponsor next year. Contact director@justashortrun.net for more information.
