Event directors worldwide are snatching up real estate to host World Run Day - The Global Fitness & Charity Challenge! Already, twenty locations on the globe have agreed to host a World Run Day event, with more expected to follow. Complete listings are available at www.runday.com for this annual running event, held on November 11th this year.

Likened in concept to last year's millennium celebration, and other mega-events, World Run Day also strives to capture the spectacular: fitness enthusiasts in a "global" same-day running event for their own favorite charity! Runners determine how they celebrate World Run Day and where their donations will go. This year, "group events" (100 or more runners each) are currently being launched both nationally and internationally to accommodate participants.

Some event directors have a majestic location (Niagara Falls, Ontario), while others have exotic routes along important landmarks (US Embassy - Manila, Philippines). All events cater to extraordinary runners in extraordinary locales. Their heartfelt creativity will shine for great causes.

Bill McDermott, event coordinator, envisions a beautiful day looming on the horizon. "Sometimes we can't see the needs of others, wherever they may be. If the darkness is to keep us apart, then let the light of this day bring us together," he states.

World Run Day is headquartered in New York City's Empire State Building. It assists event directors with ideas, sponsorship samples, and inspirational music in planning the World Run Day event.
