I'm not really much of a runner. Really. I'm not. I'm not one of those people that looooves to run. But I'm able to and it's a way to help others.

So, even though the race part is done, this campaign is not. The run
required training, determination, endurance, strength and a whole lot of moral support.

But when I think of the millions of women and children who have to walk miles each day to retrieve water for their families, I think of how most of that hard-earned water isn't even clean and can infect people with deadly diseases. I think about how 45,000 people die each day from waterborne illnesses.

And then I'm like... OK, I can do this.

But I need your help.

My goal is to raise $69,168 for water projects. That's $1 for every foot that I ran. Because of charity: water's unique model, 100% of all donations go directly to water projects, and each donation is "proved" using Google Earth when projects are complete. You can pledge per foot, per yard, per mile or you can just donate however much you'd like!

I've never done anything like this before. And I promise to do it without complaining. After all, I'll have fresh water to keep me going. That's more than millions around the world can ask for.

I'll do all the training, sweating and giving every ounce of energy I have. All I'm asking from you is to click a few buttons.
Donate.
Help me change the lives of over 3, 400 people!

Let's do this together!

Give $1 to sponsor a foot and give Life through Clean Water =)
