Now’s your chance…Run the 2012 OC Marathon
(or half marathon) while raising funds for TACA!
TACA has teamed up with Train 4 Autism, an all-volunteer organization dedicated to raising funds for the Autism charities you care about most. Join the team and train with a group of like-minded Autism advocates for the full or half marathon in May 2012. You’ll meet weekly to run, walk, and support each other.
All levels and abilities are welcomed as Train 4 Autism was started by parents, not athletes. Many Train 4 Autism participants are persons competing in their first athletic event ever or athletes that choose to walk a race instead of run – everyone is welcome!
