By the way, you generous bloggers donated about 53.8 miles, and yes Glaven, that even includes the miserable mile you threw in there :)
Jay came across an article in Sports Illustrated on Thursday, which you can read here... too bad there's no link provided so that the bloggers can continue to show the love.
** update -- due to everyone's interest in finding out how to help Vivian, I found a way to contact the author of the article, and he has sent me Vivian's email address. I sent her an email, so hopefully I'll get a response and can share a link or something with you all soon!

I want my portion of those 53.8 miles back next year. :o)
(Just kidding.)
what an awesome story! bummer about the link - i'll try to poke around a little, i'd love to donate miles to them too!
better watch out for xc2, she might tax your miles next year
Mine was actually 1.02 miles. And i did another one today, and you can have that one, too, sistre, because these sprints! The fewer memories I have of 'em, the better!
If XC-squared asks for her mile back, you should give it to her in kilometres! Hahahahaha! That'll show her! She'll have to go to a BANK to get it converted back into miles...
... or such is my understanding.
What a touching story! Nice to know that all the selfish miles I run can be converted into meaningful miles.
That is such a great story. Hopefully one of us can find a donation link b/c I think I have some more miles to give :)
What a great story!
Wow, good story..
I think I like the new blog layout. (Not that I can truly remember the old one, in all truthfulness. Hey, I'm a guy.. what do you expect?)
Nothing like the bond between a Mom and her son! Love this story-I just hope it never happens to me!
Great to share it with us all, and if anyone finds out how to donate some miles, let us know!
Since a few of us can't run yet, maybe donating the bike mileage???
Way cool story. I do wish there was a link so that I could donate some of my miles to the cause.
ps - the new blog layout is fabulous!
What a great story. Would be awesome if we could participate/contribute. Thanks for sharing!
Great story! I have plenty of miles to donate.
I missed a post - otherwise I would have donated you a mile or 1.8 because that is all I do these days. Love the new layout.
How cool you got a National Running Day ultra done!
Love the new look, been reading but not had time to comment!
Thanks for sharing the story link. I'll have to share that one.
Love the new blog layout!
That one made me cry. I am constantly amazed by people- what they can accomplish and the depth of their compassion.
I love that story. I'm passing it on.
will donated miles make me feel better?
Hi Mel, thank you for the article. I just emailed Vivian expressing my interest in donating miles{and also linked your post's url in the email.} I'll let you know soon as I hear anything.
