Pat's Run
Pat's Run is an annual marathon that benefits the Pat Tillman Foundation and is held at Arizona State University. The finish line for the marathon was located inside Sun Devil Stadium on the 42nd yard line (that was Pat Tillman's number while attending ASU).

TEMPE PAT'S RUN DRAWS RECORD CROWD IN 2007
Approximately 13,000 runners and walkers -- from all 50 states -- participated in the third annual Pat's Run, celebrating the life of American hero Pat Tillman in Tempe, Arizona on April 7. The third annual 4.2 mile run / walk broke the attendance record, topping 10,000 participants last year.
The event also featured a .42 mile Kids Run, which had 1,000 participants. Including 750 volunteers, more than 15,000 people attended Pat's Run in Tempe.
"This is a tremendous statement about Pat's inspiration," said Alex Garwood, Executive Director of the Pat Tillman Foundation. "Participants can feel great on several levels -- because they celebrated Pat's life and took time to think about him, because they took action and did something good for themselves, and at the same time they raised funds to support youth leadership programs to grow even more community leaders. It's a win-win-win.”
Proceeds benefit the Pat Tillman Foundation and it's youth leadership programs which promote positive action to benefit the community.

El Tour de Phoenix
On March 31st, Brittany and Tiffany volunteered at the El Tour de Phoenix Bike Marathon which was a fundraiser for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. It was a very busy, but rewarding morning. The girls worked at the finish line taking the ankle monitors off of the racers and then sorting them into buckets.
As a side note: one of the highlights of being a queen for Brittany has been all of the opportunities to volunteer her time to help others. Even after she gives up her title she plans to continue giving her time to charity.
