Christopher Keen – Cooperstown Marathon
This June I will be running the Cooperstown marathon. While you would like to think training to run 26.2 miles is enough motivation I figured I would need something else to work towards to ensure I keep it going. While there are many causes close to my heart those that know me best understand how much I support our armed forces. As a teacher at Manhasset High School I have witnessed the great work the Lead the Way fund does in honor of Sgt. James Regan, former Manhasset resident, who was killed by an IED in Northern Iraq while serving as a member of the Army Rangers in 2007. While I never met Sgt. Regan it is stories like his that make me proud to call myself an American. Sgt. Regan is a true hero and I hope to raise money to help the great work his family is doing in his honor.

Patrick Raymond Takes on 2016 in Support of LTWF
Please joing me in supporting the Army Ranger Lead the Way Fund throughout the next 10 months as I will be competing in numerous endurance events ranging from 10 milers to the IRONMAN triathlon distances.
LTWF was established in honor of Sgt. James Regan. Jimmy was a Chaminade High School and Duke Lacrosse alumnus assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment where tragically he was KIA in Northern Iraq in February of 2007.
This is my 4th year involved with Lead the Way and has been nothing short of an incredible and humbling journey through the cause and more importantly the amazing people I’ve had the pleasure of working with along the way. I’m very proud to be associated with this group and it is a non profit that will always remain close to my heart.
All fundraising throughout these events will support disabled U.S. Army Rangers, the families of Rangers who have passed away, as well as those who are currently serving in harm’s way.

Bucks County Runner does Ultra-Marathons for Military Charity
Newtown – Newtown resident Jason Brady, a dedicated trail and ultramarathon runner, is set to run the Peak 100 Mile Snowshoe Race in Pittsfield, VT from Feb. 28 to March 1 in an effort to raise funds for the Army Ranger Lead the Way Fund, a military charity.
Since 2012, Brady, a former Army Ranger, has run five 100-mile ultramarathons and multiple 50-plus mile ultramarathons, raising over $6,000 for this charity.
“I love to challenge myself, especially in trail and ultramarathon running,” says Brady, a dedicated husband and father of two. “As a former Army Ranger myself, my time in the 1st Ranger Battalion was extremely rewarding, most of all because of the individuals I served with.
“Rangers and their families give so much and I feel strongly about the fantastic charitable work that the Army Ranger Lead the Way Fund does. The organization really stepped up during the government shutdown for Ranger families that did not receive death benefits and other services during that time. They are unique because they assist active and wounded U.S. Army Rangers and their families with recovery, health, wellness and other programs where government funding falls short.”
Army Ranger Lead The Way Fund, Inc. is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization established to raise funds in support of disabled U.S. Army Rangers and the families of Rangers who have died, have been injured or are currently serving in harm’s way around the world. Army Ranger Lead The Way Fund, Inc. will provide spouses and children of deceased, disabled or active duty Rangers with assistance for health and wellness programs and other services determined to be vital to the family’s well-being, beyond what the government can offer.
To contribute, visit Brady’s fundraising page HERE.
All donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law and contributors will receive a letter acknowledging their donation from the Ranger Lead the Way Fund, Inc.
Brady’s tentative upcoming race schedule includes:
Feb. 28 – March 1: Peak 100 Mile Snowshoe (Pittsfield, VT)
Aug. 16-17: Eastern States 100 Mile (Waterville, PA)
