Hi Mark, We have just opened registration for our 6th annual Brain Tumor Awareness Cycle/Run/Walk event. I was hoping that you could possibly share this with your group. We are taking $5 off registration for anyone who registers before 2/28/13 with discount code 5offReg. Here are the details that went out yesterday.

The 2013 Moving Towards A Cure Brain Tumor Awareness event in Clearwater is underway, and we need you to help us raise critically needed awareness and funding for brain tumors! Sign up for Moving Towards A Cure Clearwater Today and Save $5 Off Your Reg-istration Fees (Valid Only 2/12/2013 - 2/28/2013)! Use discount code 5offReg when registering.

I wanted to personally thank you for your continued support in Miles For Hope, and can't wait to see you again. Each year, our events become more popular and raise more awareness and funding for brain tumors! We are so proud and grateful for your commitment to making this event better each year! To show our appreciation, we are offering prior year registration, $5 off for early reg-istration! From today until February 28, 2013, you will save $5 off the regular registra-tion fees, a sincere "Thank You" for your support and commitment to Miles For Hope. Wont you consider being a team captain and starting a team this year? Chances are you have a handful of friends, family members and co-workers who share your commitment and enthusiasm for the event.

Start A Moving Towards A Cure Team Today! and invite them to join you at the event. Leading a team is easier than you think with all of the tools available for our team captains. Youll receive a team captain toolkit, the support of our staff and vol-unteers, and access to an enhanced participant center with the ability to e-mail all of your team members and coach them toward fundraising success.

A Message from Mark Davis regarding ourTriathlon for Troops member

Russell Price. He has been a member

going on two years now. He was instru-

mental in getting us on Mac Dill AFB

last year to do some brick training at that

awesome site. He has been sporting

Team Psych gear around the world in his

military travels since leaving Tampa.

Russ and his wife want so much to return

to Tampa. As such I asked him to work

together to get him back. Please read be-

low and think if there is a place for him

and his lovely wife.

To update you and the rest of Team

Psych (Tampa team) the Team Psych (El

Paso team namely me) has been hard at

work in school since I left Tampa in June

of 2012. I have started up an unofficial satellite team and have about 33 El Fuegoites. This June, I will graduate from the United States Sergeants Major Academy, and, at the same time, I will graduate from Excelsior College with

my Masters in Business Administration with a concentration in Leadership. So now, I find myself in the hunt for a job and hope that someone in Team Psych

will know of an opening that might match my skills and talents. My back-

ground is in operations and project or program management and, in addition to

the MBA, I am a certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt. For those not ac-

quainted with the Lean Six Sigma program, we attempt to reduce costs and/or

increase profits using quality management methods specific to the program.

In addition, if and when I find a job, hopefully in Tampa, my wife will be

looking for employment as well. As she has worked as an office manager for

the past 13 years will be looking for something in the same field. My wife and I

are grateful for the help and support.

The Chilly Willy Duathlon 2013 was of

the funnest races I've ever done. And it

was chilly - 45 degrees when I arrived

and racked my bike. The distances were

5k run - 10mi bike - 5k run. As this was

the Southeast championships for duath-

lon there were alomost 700 entrants. I

think I was the only pirate team psych-o

there. Next yeatr let's get more people

out, it's a REALLY fun, quick race. My

first 5k was 24:30, bike was about 24

min, and my 2nd 5k run 24:15. This was

my first race on my new Trinity tri bike.

Knowing it was only ten miles made it

easy to stay in the big chain ring and

push the biggest gear I had. I believe I

finished 14th of 50 or so in my age group

- really happy with that! I did wear all

black to represent Team Psych.

You all played a part in today's successperhaps some of you weren't able to be with us, but trust me, you were there! From the beginning, when the kids picked up their awesome and packed to the brim Publix Insulated Goody/Lunch Bag that included a Publix Soccer Beach Ball, a Kellogg's Soccer Ball, Kashi GoLean Bar, Dole Fruit Cup, metroPCS Lanyard & more To the looks of awe as Mayor Buckhorn chatted with them in the sweetest of waysto the smiles on their faces as they played game after interactive gameposed for photos with 'Carmen & Wagner, the Krewe of Alegria Ladies, Tony The Ti-ger, Start Wars Characters & the UT Spartanpicked up their Fifth Third Bank piggy bank...got their faces paintedgot tat-tooed by Team Psych Tri, sampled lots of healthy foods from Evos, GoGo Squeeze, Hershey's & Smoothie King...and fi-nally The time came for them to step up to their Start Linethey concentrated on every instruction that was given and waited on the anticipated 'On You Mark - Get Set - Go!' Some were able to run the entire distanceothers walkedsome did bothbut they all finished and after grabbing a bottle of Zephyrhills Spring Water, watched with wide eyes as their Fifth Third Bank Too Good For Drugs Jr. Gasparilla Distance Classic Finisher's Medal was placed around their necksthenlooked around for their parents affirming words and expressionsawesome! A good time was had by all and the day ended as it began

with the voice of WQYK DJ, Kurt Shriner. He's a dad himself and did a great job of keeping everyone informedgetting us to the right spots and at the right timekeeping the par-ents calm as they let their children's hands go in the Start Area...knowing exactly when the time came for a kind word to address a parent or child's needKurt treated the morning as a dad would. You guys are awesomethanks to you, the kids and parents had tons of fun and I'm cer-tain, made many memories.
