Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page.  I ran my first marathon back in 2003 in Chicago and have decided to give it another go eight years later.  This time around is extra special...not only am I running the marathon with my two brothers, Chad and Colby, but I am also raising money for a very special organization - Running Strong for American Indian Youth.  Growing up in North Carolina and part of the Lumbee Indian Tribe, I was fortunate enough to travel the country and take part in some amazing educational programs through various American Indian programs.  My four months of training leading up to the 26.2 mile run is my attempt to "pay it forward" and help those other American Indian youth seeking the same opportunities I was afforded.  So please DONATE to a good cause!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
