Ellie's Run Video - let's take it up a notch

Two weeks from tomorrow I'm running a 5k race called "Ellie's Run". The money raised from the race benefits a school in Africa. Specifically, each $25 provides books, uniforms and shoes to a child who will then be allowed to attend. Here is a video showing some of what's going on in the area, and what the money is going to support.

For the record, we've raised about $700 from this site, and my goal is $1000. But really my goal is to make $1000 look silly, and put more kids in school than would seem possible from a guitar playing songwriter's website. Thanks for getting involved.

And tonight I'm going to try to run 3 miles, in training. I'll let you know how it goes.

Easiest way to get it above $1000 --- promise a Normals reunion show in Nashville if it happens. ;)
