To help raise some money toward Wendy Montgomery's airfare and to get Wendy
jazzed about her upcoming World Championship 100K run, some friends are
organizing a special weeknight kickoff party. Here's the agenda:

5:30 - meet at the Griffin Rec Center in North Vancouver (Queens Avenue just
west of Delbrook)
5:45 - join the Capilano Eagles running club for an organized workout of
approximately 60 minutes
7:00 - meet at Mosquito Creek Grill (Westview Mall)
- mix, mingle, enjoy a free pint
7:30 - some background on the 100K National Team by former team manager Ean
Jackson
7:40 - war stories by several past team members (Andy Nicol and others TBD)
7:50 - a few words from Wendy and a draw for valuable prizes
9:30?- home to bed

Who is Wendy Montgomery?
========================

Wendy is a Brackendale, BC resident, (also North Vancouver for several
years),
full-time worker, a mother of 2 children, and Canada's top female
performer at the 100 kilometer ultramarathon distance. She has been
training and racing over the past year to prepare for the upcoming IAU
100 km World Cup on the island of Hokkaido, Japan (June 26, 2005).

Unfortunately, the ACU (Association of Canadian Ultramarathoners ) has
very minimal funding available. What little funding they do have has
been allocated to cover accommodation and meals for all members of Team
Canada during the stay in Japan. Wendy needs direct financial help
(approximately $3000) to cover flight costs, ground transportation,
and other basic incidentals.

The World Cup is just weeks away. Wendy has trained hard and is physically
and mentally prepared to set a new Canadian woman's record for 100K. Right
now, it's looking as if she won't be able to compete.
