This July, Ray Charbonneau will be running the Vermont 100 Mile Endurance Run (http://www.vermont100.com/). The race is a benefit for Vermont Adaptive Ski and Sports (VASS - http://www.vermontadaptive.org/), which offers low-cost sports and recreation programs for people with handicaps/disabilities. You can help! Ray is collecting donations for VASS, and if enough people donate, he'll be too embarrassed to back out. Also, if Ray collects $500 or more, he gets his $150 entry fee back. If that happens, Ray will use that money to match the largest donation he's given (up to $150). So be generous. It's for a good cause, and it'll cost Ray! You can donate with your credit card at: http://www.justgiving.com/PFP/vt100 or you can fill out the attached form and send it, along with your check (made out to VASS), to: Ray Charbonneau 17 Knollwood Rd.

No offence Ray, but you show up here out of the blue asking
people to send you money with no way of verifying what you
are doing. I think only the FBI might be interested in
having this post forwarded.

Ray's a big boy and can defend himself but maybe you are the
new person. Ray has been posting on and off the list since
1999. Stick Charbonneau in google for groups and check
before you jump in someones [censored].

No it's NOT a troll. I know Ray and I'm very familiar
with the race with 4 Buckles. If you want to verify he
is runninmg take a look at :
vermont100.comentrants list.shtml and
vermontadaptive.orgvermontadaptive.org will tell you what
they support.;
The VASS is a great organization that works with people with
special needs. I'm not one that likes to solicit money even
for good causes and why I never came for funding. By the
way, every nickle goes to the VASS organization.
I would also be doing this race but fell asleep at the wheel
and the race was full when I went to sign up.

Addendum: You can land on you forefoot instead of your heel,
and still be overstriding. If you reach out ahead with your
foot with the toes extended, you'll land on your toes, but
still brake with each step, slowing you down and requiring
that the force of braking be absorbed, causing shin splints,
sore hamstrings, etc....
The important thing is to lean (your whole body, not just at
the hips) forward enough, and keep your stride short enough,
so that you are pushing forward from the moment your foot
plants. If you have flexible enough ankles, you can do this
and still land on your heel, but for most of us, avoiding
braking requires landing on the fore- or mid-foot.

Now we KNOW it's a TROLL! Anything the Freese idiot endorses
is phony or crooked. How big's your cut Freese?
