Al's Run Wrap 2008
Written by: noreply@blogger.com (mu_hilltopper)
What a year. We are really honored by the 90 people who dug into their wallets and donated to Al's Run.
By Friday, I'd moved the goal posts 3 times, and the Marquette Basketball community rose to the occasion every time. Friday's donations came in so fast, I gave up trying to figure out where to set the goal.
We ended at $4,430 (http://www.firstgiving.com/marquettefans) .. more than doubling last year's record. Amazing!
I filmed a little "Thank you" video that's going to win an Emmy. (Sound needed)

And here's a great slide-show from the Run. There's a great shot of 17,000 people marching down Wisconsin Ave.:
