Tallahassee, Florida – On February 1st, 2010, two athletes from New York left St. Augustine, Florida to rollerblade across the USA in an attempt to raise funds and awareness for select charities through their project “In Motion For A Million”. The trek will benefit the Huntington’s Disease Society of America and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Steven Feigenbaum, co-founder of In Motion For A Million and participating athlete, is overwhelmed by the journey’s response so far. “Everything is going really well. The people of St. Augustine and Gainesville have been extremely kind and hospitable. The response has really been unbelievable. And now, we just can’t wait to get to Tallahassee!”
The team hopes to raise at least one million dollars while rollerblading across the USA to San Diego, California. The team has already raised several thousand dollars in donations since their kick off on February 1, 2010. Media personnel are invited to join the athletes for a part of the rollerblade journey as the venture through and out of Tallahassee.
The athletes will be available for media interviews on February 9 and 10, 2010 before they begin their journey to Pensacola, Florida. Complete tour details, blogs and donation information can be followed on the In Motion for a Million website http://www.inmotionforamillion.org.
