SAY, BUDDY-CAN YOU SPARE A
DIME-PER MILE?
Ever wonder what it's like to run for 24 hours?
Well, not the entire 24 hours but 2.5 mile laps three
or four times in a 24 hour period? At 5:00 p.m.,
11:00 p.m., 3:00 a.m., and again at 6:00 a.m. No?

Ever wonder what it's like to stay up all night with
5000 other equally hyped amateur runners? Not in to
masochism, huh? Well, ever wonder how great it
feels to hand a cheque for over 1.5 million dollars to
a group of disabled children? To know that you have
helped build and staff a centre for disabled children
and their families? Talk about your all time runner's
high! This event is the ultimate expenence both
emotionally and physically. Heck, if it came to that
I would pay them to let me do it!
Unfortunately, VCC's team in the 24 Hour Relay ran
out of gas m 1992. After participating in this great
event since its first run - 15 years ago ~ VCC is no

Steph Jewell, aka P.A. from HELL) will be running

J. Walter Thompson, an advertising firm located at
1066 W. Hastings St.
Call me at local 7010 and give me your pledge.
Pledges can be by the mile (max. of 200 miles
covered by the team); i.e, a pledge of 10 cents per
mile = $20.00 for which you will be billed or you
may pledge a lump sum amount. Cheques which
should be made out to the 24 Hour Relay or cash will
be accepted up to noon Friday, June 17, 1994.
You can reach me at 871-7010 or drop off your
pledge to me in the Admin. Area, Level 4, Office
#4065A. If you phone in your pledge and reach my
voicemail, just leave your full name, work #, address
and amount per mile or lump sum amount you wish
to pledge. Tax receipts will be issued by the B.C.
Lions Society after the event for amounts of $20.00
or more. Just think — you can achieve a runner's

high without ever leaving your armchair! Thanks so
