I fixed the link in my post, sorry about that. As to the contest, I'm sure it is legitimate, as I found out about it on the National Multiple Sclerosis Society web site.

Yes, that was me. Last year I made a committment that if you all helped me raise at least $1,000 in 2003, I would do the 3-day, 50-mile MS Challenge Walk in 2004. Thanks to you all we far exceeded that goal (raising over $1,600!!), so I will be walking 50 miles this fall. In addition, I am also organizing a team for the spring walk at my place of employment
More information is coming shortly!

I saw the ad for this on the MS site, but find it odd that the "sponsors", (ie. Fujifilm & SanDisk, etc.) have absolutely nothing (that I could find anyway) on their websites about it. Wouldn't you think they'd want to promote this so more peeps would know about it??
