Dear Friends, Relatives and Business Associates:
A terrible, terrible thing happened early Sunday, June 8th. Mark Ragonese (Rags to all of us), was very seriously injured in a freak accident while setting up for the Survivor 7 Running Race in downtown Baltimore.
He is currently in Maryland Shock Trauma doing the best that he can. His family and friends have come out of the woodwork to support him and his family. 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 is committed to do everything possible to provide the very best for their CSE Brother, his wife Erika and his children Jack (6) and Livy (3). As many of you are aware we have been organizing events for years that have generated millions of dollars in charitable funds for many over the years. Next Saturday we will be putting on the Inaugural Baltimore 10 Miler and I am proud to say that some of the proceeds will be going to benefit Mark and his family. We will be setting up a Trust for him and his family. I hope that all of you can make a point to be involved is some way
I also invite you to visit the Website/blog below where you can learn more about what happened, get updates on his condition and even write a note to Rags and his family.
