School website in 2009 does not list race as of the morning of Wednesday before the race will be held.
This PDF of a school newsletter is the only information found on 2009 event
This PDF supports the fact the event is school supported event and they have a link called: Notes Home (now in pdf) This would mean that the information is given to students and parents. Not at all sure if the public is invited or not.
Race Review by R King
Great views from Appleton Ridge. Nice out and back course with a tricky hill at Mile 1.5. Mile 1 was 6:16 (headwind). Held the lead to the turn and Amanada LaBelle took it from there (3rd at the MDI Marathon in 2008). She ran a good race. I finished with the men’s division title “ridge runner”. 20:02.
Ran the course prior, ran the race and a 30 minute cooldown – let’s say 9.5 in Appleton and a 2.2 mile walk in Stockton in the late afternoon.

This event may have not been or Hope may have been lost!
If you entered this running event please give us a report. It is our understanding: runners were asked to pay a Fee: $10.00. ($5 Student) The public & students were asked to please make checks payable to “The Peace and Justice Center of Eastern Maine” If a runner wanted a t-shirt you could pay another $15.00. No report on how many runners took the event up on this “deal”. No report on the number of people who did the run to support “Hope”! Well, no report as early Monday 27 April 2009! It is not at all clear who has the information or what if anything the runners would get for their $10.00 or & $5.00. One might think at least the winner would have his/her time recorded? It is my hope to pass on the results as soon as I get them. I am very hopeful. See my question & the answer I was given.

Cushman, Monhegan Boat Line, Hoggy’s, Road ID, and Patagonia. Food was

Mike Brooks tells us:
” I think I bit off more than I can chew as the saying goes. My plan is to try to run 500 miles in a Ten Day race and raise $10,000 for Camp Sunshine. Camp Sunshine is located on Sebago Lake , Maine and helps seriously ill children and their families. To learn more about Camp Sunshine and why I am doing this race please watch the short video.
Well the fundraising part is going slow mostly because of the economy so I need your help more than ever to reach my goal. If you can make a donation it would be greatly appreciated by me and the kids , some terminally ill ,who you would be helping.
As runners you know about enduring pain. You choose to run and bring on the pain involved knowing that the pain will go away . The kids that go to Camp Sunshine suffer more than most of us could imagine and for some of them their pain will never go away.
Donate by the mile to make me try harder to get to 500 miles or a set amount. Donations can be made at www.tendaysforsunshine.org or mailed to Camp Sunshine , 35 Acadia Road , Casco, ME 04015. If you mail a donation in note that it is for my fundraiser please. If you are going to donate by the mile let me know you are so I will have that much more motivation, I do not need to know the amount per mile. If you know of anyone who might donate please forward this email.
To watch the video of Camp Sunshine and me follow directions below.
