Current Update:
As of Nov 2009- I have an investor whose own personal business is doing very well in the market place. Due to his hectic schedule it makes it hard to have meetings. So I am looking for an investor who can take the idea from start to finish with the funding I may already have from my 1st investor.

After five years of teaching physical education Coach Roudy decided to take a bigger step and in 2008 he founded Coach Roudy Fights Childhood Obesity Foundation. CRFCO’s mission is to fight childhood obesity, one step at a time. The organization is dedicated to improving the health of children and inspiring children to lead active lifestyles that will stay with them for a lifetime by promoting sports and healthy eating. Coach is esteemed in his local adult community for being a model of great health practices and children’s advocate with an unwavering commitment to good sportsmanship & moral values. To the children in our community he is not just a good role model, he is their celebrity hero.
Last year was the first Fun Run. According to those participants, the 5K was a smashing success. There were approximately 230 participants in total with parents and children from ages 3 to 70. The event had nutritionists speak to kids about eating healthy, martial arts demonstrations and a magic show. Each student received free collectible gifts from the NFL, NBA, WNBA and Miami FC.
During the summer of 2009 Coach Roudy has patented an IP software and gadget that will help and motivate children to get active and will reduce the obesity epidemic in our country and world wide. The 5k and Fun Run is a means of laying down the foundation of who Coach Roudy is and what he stands for so that when the product he has is mind is ready for purchase; parents, children, and young athletes world wide will purchase the product in a hurry.
