Yesterday was a memorable day!! I ran my first marathon in some
tough weather conditions and with a bad injury during the run. My goal was to
finish in about five hours but i took much longer (close to six hours) because
of a severe knee problem I developed around the ninth mile.
You
trusted in me and in my cause. You believed in my committment not just for the
marathon but also for the work that AID is doing. Believe me very few of my
close ones did what you did. I am forever thankful to you for this wonderful
gesture. Your support kept me going all through the training and especially on
the big day.
In all I raised $800 for the North East livelihood
generation project. I know that this is only 1/3rd of my original goal (of
$2600). But I am not giving up. I am confident that there are more people like
you in this world and money will pour in. I strongly encourage you to learn
more about this project at http://studentorgs.utexas.edu/aidaustin/projects/RVC-Dhemaji/index.html
From
my side I will keep you posted on how your money is being spent on this
project.
Once again thank you so much. I would not have been able to
run yesterday without your support.
Best Regards
Harish
