Greet a Runner for Wounded Warriors

2009_1111_runner.jpg Arriving in D.C. today is Chris Cuddihy, a multiple marathon runner (and, full disclosure, a friend from my hometown) who set out Saturday to run from New York City to D.C. in order to raise money and awareness for Wounded Warriors, a group that provides services and programs to help the most seriously wounded returning soldiers and their families.

Chris will finish his mammoth run, which was forced to change into a bike ride after an injury on Sunday, at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial today around 1 p.m., where he'll be greeted by a small ceremony. You can donate to Chris's cause here, and, if you'd like to be there at the finish line to cheer him on, check his progress on Twitter @NYDCrun.
