Running for More 2012
58:30 – 6 miles
I have been spending most of my thoughts on the run thinking about what charity I can partner with for 2012. My goal is to run the Leadville 100 (yes, 100 miles in one day) and create awareness, publicity, and fundraise for a charity. I love speaking in front of people and talking about being active. I have thought about the slogan “100 Miles for $100k”. From finding companies, sponsors, and events, I believe that this is an attainable goal over a year time period. Just need to find a charity that is willing to partner with me. In return I would ask for covering costs for me and my crew to complete the Leadville 100 mile trail run.
Thoughts have also been around outlining a book I want to write. If I am able to complete a 50 mile ultramarathon while still spending time with wife, 4 kids, and full time job, then anyone can do it! It’s just taking those first steps and knowing what people are feeling is not unusual. Being aware of how to be active and what you are eating are those first steps. More to come on this book venture in time …
