We posted earlier about Dr. Hergenroether and his quest to raise money for Vitamin Angels as he runs the Santa Barbara Half Marathon on November 12! Well, the time is here!

The Select Staffing Santa Barbara International Marathon, ½ Marathon and Elite Rehab Health & Fitness Relay will be the biggest and most competitive athletic event in Santa Barbara in 2011 with over 5,000 athletes from across the world competing for a podium spot and cash prizes.

If you have not yet had a chance to do so, please join Dr. Hergenroether in making a meaningful difference in the lives of undernourished children worldwide as he races on behalf of Vitamin Angels.

You can make a contribution today by visiting www.teamvitaminangels.org and clicking under “Support an Angel”.  Scroll to find Michael Hergenroether’s name and donate on his Personal Fundraising Page.

If you prefer to write a check, please make it out to “Vitamin Angels”. 


And now we are happy to report that Dr. Cochran will be volunteering at the event! Did you know nearly 1,000 volunteers are needed to produce this event.  Last year this event was a premier event and it was all due to the fantastic volunteers on the course! All volunteers will receive a Santa Barbara International Marathon Volunteer T-Shirt and an invitation to the Volunteer Appreciation Event.

Thank you for your support and making a difference in these children’s lives!
