TINA JENULESON	$5.00	"What a great cause. Let's end it before our gyms are overflowing with obese adults in 20 years. I'd welcome the day when people just wanted to train with me to gain muscle and strength instead of having to struggle with weight loss!"

Michele DeCarlo	$50.00	"What a great cause!! Its a scary epidemic and its wonderful to see caring people like yourself that are taking part in putting an end to it! I would love to come and help out next time you have a fundraiser and do a kids zumba class. I do one every month at the Atlantic club and the kids love it! "

Lisa DeRosa	$50.00	"For all that Chris has done for me, this is the least I can do for this cause. Both of my children struggle with weight issues. My son is obese. I will always feel the guilt of not being more concerned as to what I allowed them to eat when they were chidren. I will always worry that their lives will end way too young. Please help to bring awareness to others before they go through the pain I do. I never thought my kids would be overweight. Never. Help this wonderful charity to help save lives...please."

Jennifer Schumacher	$100.00	"Good luck reaching your goal...we should all be concerned with the health of our children - thanks Chris Flo for reminding me :)"

Tara Covert	$5.00	"Wishing you lots of luck reaching your goal for the great cause!!! :)"

Jessica DiFiore	$25.00	"Finish line here I come!"

ING Run For Something Better helps fund running and fitness education programs in schools to show kids how exercise can help achieve good health. Nationally, ING has committed over $2.5 million to help fund these programs through ING Run For Something Better.

ING wants to make it easier for kids to be successful and encouraging healthy lifestyles and helping prevent childhood obesity are steps in the right direction.
