    An event planning process identifies the challenges that come with planning and delivering a successful event, and provides organisations with a methodical approach to overcome these (Allen, Harris, McDonnell, & O'Toole, 2010). In particular, how an event is conceived, planned and delivered, is strongly based on how an organisation is able to identify and address the contextual factors that could impact its success (CITE).

    It is really a special day to see all these runners participate in this Red legs Run. It shows how strong and supportive the Red Leg community and that there is always opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our youth. I projected that this race would hopefully raise 50,000$dollars. Ladies and Gentlemen. Today we have already raised over $180,000 and that number is continuing to rise. This number is unprecedented and I want to personally thank all of the sponsors and participants for helping us achieve our goal of 50,000. This money will be incorporated into the Red's community fund. This money will fund some of our outreach programs. Outreach programs include the Reds Rookie Success League, a free, coed, character-building program for 6-12 year olds in Greater Cincinnati. It will also fund Youth Baseball and Softball Funding, which underwrites expenses for more than 400 inner-city teams throughout Reds Country. Also, it will aid in Renovations of multiple baseball fields. The funds from this Red Leg Run will help restore over 325 baseball and softball…

If you ran the distance in practice, I’d be the first to take you to Boston.” (Switzer) Three months before the marathon, they had their trial. Kathrine ran the twenty six marathon miles plus and extra five miles. While her coach was completely winded and passed out, she stood tall and grinned in…
