Dear friends and family,

Hi! As many of you know, I am attempting my first 100 mile trail run on August 25-26th. The race is called the Cascade Crest 100 Mile Endurance Run and it gains more than 21,000 ft of elevation (yikes!) over stunning terrain.

This will undoubtedly be the toughest and most beautiful course I have ever ran. In light of that, I am dedicating this run to Lara Kellogg, the toughest and most beautiful person I have ever known. Lara passed away in a climbing accident on April 23rd and is dearly missed.

A memorial fund has been established in her name through the American Alpine Club. Donations will honor Lara's commitment to preserving natural wild spaces. By clicking on "Sponsor Me Now," your contributions will be sent directly into her fund via the AAC.

Please consider sponsoring me at one of these giving levels:
$.25/mile.....$25
$.50/mile.....$50
$.75/mile.....$75
$1.00/mile....$100

Keep in mind that any Outdoor Research employee donation will be generously matched by Outdoor Research.  (thanks Dan!)

Thanks for all your encouragement and support!!

Love, Jenny
