Hope some are participating.
I'm holding a similar event that day at my place in Jersey with some friends. A $20 donation to the Foundation gets you entry into the 4.2 mile, pizza and Guinness afterward and door prizes. I'm hoping to get $200 to send to the Foundation.

More than 1,000 sign up for commemorative run
March 24, 2005
TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -- More than 1,000 people have signed up for a race next month to honor former Arizona State linebacker and Arizona Cardinals safety Pat Tillman, the university said Wednesday.
``Pat's Run,'' will be held April 16 on a 4.2-mile course that will finish at the 42-yard line of Sun Devil Stadium where Tillman, the first NFL player killed in combat since Vietnam, wore No. 42 during a spectacular college career that included selection as the Pac-10 defensive player of the year in 1997. He switched to No. 40 during his four years with the Cardinals.
Race director Perry Edinger, a spinal care specialist at Scottsdale Rehab Institute, was Arizona State's head trainer when Tillman was playing for the Sun Devils. He felt a distance run would be in keeping with the athlete's passion for physical activity.
``I tried to find a way to give people a chance to remember Pat and celebrate his life,'' Edinger said. ``Pat was not about golf outings or tennis matches. He was about fitness.''
The 27-year-old Tillman died on April 22, 2003, while trying to rescue soldiers pinned down by an ambush in Afghanistan. He walked away from a $3.6 million NFL contract to volunteer for the Army Rangers after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
