~~ My goal in creating this site is to hopefully inspire some of my friends and loved ones to support some worthy causes that I am trying to raise funds for.~~

I would like to apply my appreciation and enjoyment of running to a higher purpose, which is why I'm seeking your assistance and commitment to pledge any amount you'd like for some good causes as I commit to putting forth my effort and dedication in preparing and training for the upcoming events listed below. I plan on using this site as a tool to track my own progress towards my goals, as well as to keep those who might like to help me towards these goals updated and informed about my inspirations, hopes, and motivation. Please bookmark this page and take some time to look around :)
