MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BW SportsWire)--Nov. 11, 2000

The i2 Foundation today announced that it will sponsor a 5K and 10K run/walk race in Shoreline Park, Mountain View, Calif., on Saturday, Nov. 11, 2000 at 9:00 a.m.

Proceeds from corporate sponsorships, personal donations, and entry fees for the race will go towards global charity programs promoting advancements in education, technology, environmental practices, medicine and economic opportunity.

"While success stories in the high tech world flood the media daily, the lives of millions of people around the world remain trapped in poverty, disease and deprivation," said Janet Eden-Harris, chairperson for the i2 Foundation West Coast Run for a Better World. "As industry and thought leaders, we have the power and means to make a change. This race is an opportunity for many of us who have benefited from today's thriving economy to help others help themselves."

The registration cost for the West Coast Run for a Better World is $25 before November 1 and $35 after November 1, and on race day. Race day registration opens at the course at 8:00 a.m. Cash awards will be granted to first, second, and third place male and female winners of the 5K and 10K, and additional prizes will be awarded for age group winners. Those interested in registering for either race, or making a donation to the i2 Foundation can do so online at www.i2foundation.org.
