Mark Ragonese ("Rags" to all of us) was very seriously injured in a freak accident while setting up for the Survivor Harbor 7 race in downtown Baltimore.

He is currently in a rehab facility in Atlanta doing the best that he can. The support, thoughts and prayers bestowed upon Mark and his family have been heartwarming beyond belief. I am so proud to say that we have so many friends, relatives and business acquaintances who are just good to the core people.

His CSE family is heartbroken and we are committed to do everything possible to provide the very best for our CSE brother, his wife Erika and his children Jack (6) and Livy (3). We are proud to say that proceeds from many of our events will be earmarked to benefit Mark and his family.
