How To Run a Marathon: Step 1 - start running. There is no Step 2.
The Runners Sole in Chambersburg PA is sponsoring a fun run on the 22nd as well. I think it's a great idea.
Oh roo roooo!
Performance Running Outfitters in Brookfield (Milwaukee area) is doing so also.
YAYpril - B-Plus
Aardvark Sports Shop in Bethlehem, PA is doing the same.
Boulder Running Company in Colorado Springs is doing this on Wednesday the 24th.
Doc, my tooth hurts
I would love to do this, but I don't get out of work until 6. Blah.
Our store (Lincoln Running Company) will let people who can't do the run still donate and get a shirt if they call in advance.
Oh no I meant the actual running part, I'll probably still donate one way or another.
Running Fit in the Detroit area is doing one on 4/24 at Kensington Metropark.

Any store in the Pasadena area doing this?
1100 runners in the rain and sleet. $30000 raised. Link
Mmmmm...beer
I went to one at my LRS last night, bought two shirts, had a good run with a lot of good friends. Between the two stores they raised $15,000, and they're taking orders for a second round of shirts (they sold out of the first order).

Goals | sub-18 5k | sub-3 marathon 2:56:46!!
We had about 450 people there last night. Over $9000 raised. They ran out of shirts and had to order more.
I'm really curious now as to what the total amount raised was across all of the stores that participated yesterday.
