Nike-women's-marathon The Nike Women’s Marathon in San Francisco sold out in a matter of hours. But now the largest women’s marathon in the world is going online. Women runners around the world can register at www.nikeplus.com/runtogether to run “alongside” the 20,000 participants in the Nike Women’s Marathon. The virtual half marathon is a race without a distinct course, run in any city and tracked by each participant’s own Nike+ system (iPod nano, Nike + iPod Sport Kit and pair of Nike+ shoes). Online participants can run the half marathon any time on October 21 (the same day as the full marathon), but must finish the 13.1 mile run by 11:59 PM HST. As long as each participant successfully runs and syncs 13.1 miles with her Nike+ system on October 21, 2007, she will be considered an official Nike+ Women’s Half Marathon finisher.

Nike+ has also developed an interactive female-specific 12-week virtual training program, designed for those training for the marathons (see www.nikeplus.com/runtogether).

DETAILS:
You’ll need the Nike+ system and a computer with online service to sync your half marathon time to. The Nike+ system consists of: an iPod nano, a Nike + iPod Sport Kit and a pair of Nike+ shoes. You can purchase any of these items by visiting www.nikestore.com. In addition to the system, you’ll also need a Nike+ membership before you can successfully register for the race. For more information, or to become a member, visit www.nikeplus.com.

RACE DATE:
Sunday, October 21, 2007

RACE LOCATION:
Any city in the United States

ENTRY FEE SCHEDULE:
$45 until September 15, 2007.

A portion of your Nike+ Women’s Marathon entry fee benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society® (LLS), the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services. The Society’s mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

You know, I’m really not sure this is such a good idea. You pay $45 for the privilege of running 13.1 miles on your own time - they say “a portion” of the entry fee goes to the LLS but how much? This seems like a profit-making/publicity stunt to me.

master thesis from India said:

s statistics shows, considerable number of foreclosures takes place within the sub-prime lending group in which there is a high percentage of adjustable rate mortgages. This happens because initially these mortgages don’t have fixed rate of interest. Initially interest rates of these mortgages are set low, but with the course of time these rates grows considerably, and it is difficult for borrower to make such high payments...master thesis
