Hi!

Thanks for joining me on my journey.  I'm on a personal goal of running a marathon on every continent and I have just one left.  It just happens to be in Antarctica.  I've partnered up with Medical Mininistries International (MMI) an organization that helps a ton of people.  That's what got me so excited about this organization... 'Is the ability to better the lives of thousands of people around the world.'  With very little overhead, this non-profit, meets the need for medical care among the world's poor through donations in medicine, onsite patient care, and onsite health education.

I'm asking for your help to support this great cause of helping people receive basic medical care.

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
