What national charity organizations sponsor walks, run, ride, or skate marathons?

Question

I'm looking for something like Team In Training or 3Day, but I can't find anything other than those two. I did an 60 mile Walk for AIDS a few years ago and would like to do something like that again. I want an organization that I train for the event (with their assistance, like they have coaches) and that I fundraise for the event at the same time. Any ideas on where to find these organizations??

Answer 1

Team in Training really is the best well-known. The only other one I can think of is the Danskin Women's Triathlons -- I know they are held in at least Austin, Texas and Orlando, Florida.
