Last year, we introduced you to Team Fox member James Mangini. He is the president of Sweet Angel Gifts, an online gift company that runs regular promotions to benefit The Michael J. Fox Foundation. These promotions are ongoing, but James wanted to do even more as a Team Fox member.

To him, that means running from Charleston, SC, to New York, NY, in 30 days—a total of 1,000 miles. In honor of his father, James hopes to raise funds and awareness for Parkinson’s research along much of the east coast.

1000-Mile Marathon

The journey begins on May 1, 2012. Until then, James is busy training and planning a number of events along the route. Click here to learn more about this endeavor and how you can get involved!
