The money keeps rolling in

Just checked my sponsorship page for Aids Marathon, and was surprised to see that even though the marathon was a month ago, people are still making donations. Amazingly, since the race, another $1,200 has been donated, taking my total to $18,212!

Here's some different ways to think about that amount......
......$695.11 per mile run
......$0.43 per meter run
......$1 for every 2.31 meters run
......$68.59 per minute run
......$1.14 per second run
......$0.38 per step taken
......$1 for every 2.62 steps taken

And by far the most useless measure, if you took the total amount in 1 cent coins and laid them out in a line, they would stretch for almost 21 miles. If I somehow manage to raise another $4,600 (which is highly unlikely), the pennies would go the entire marathon course.
