Coronavirus 40 and 40

Tax deductible
Hello and thanks for coming to our page!  We are nine friends who've bonded over the Marco Polo app and Zoom happy hours during this quarantine.  This past weekend we challenged the group to collectively run 40 miles and collectively drink 40 beers.  Believe it or not, this Saturday, 4/18/20, we will collectively run 40 miles (independent of one another) and then collectively drink 40 beers during a Zoom Happy Hour.   What once started as a fun challenge among friends has now become a way to give back during this Coronavirus Pandemic.   We will be following all social distancing rules during this event.


Each one of us will be pledging $1.00 for each mile ran and $1.00 for each beer drank.  Theoretically, this should be $80.00 per person and $720.00 total raised for the CDP COVID-19 Response Fund which supports preparedness, containment, response and recovery activities for those most affected and for the responders.  

With YOUR support I'm sure we could run more miles and, definitely, drink more beers to increase donations!


This is where we need YOUR help!! 

We are asking you to make the same pledge or donate whatever you feel comfortable.  We also ask that you join the cause and see how many miles you can run and/or have a couple beers too!  If you do join the run and/or drinks then please send in a video or selfie of you supporting the cause.  We hope to make a tribute video at the end and would like to feature all supporters!


If you run outside, please follow the social distancing rules as suggested by the CDC.  If you cannot go outside to run then please use a treadmill, run in place, or find another exercise to support the cause.  Thanks so much for your support and any donations.  Please reach out to any of us with questions:
