100 miles for Cancer Research

I registered for the RIM TO RIVER 100 MILE RACE(<--- Link to race) shortly after 12:00 am on New Years Day.  You may think it was on a whim  but I have been thinking about completing this challenge for a long time.  I have completed some 50k's and a 50 miler but never 100 miles.   

We all know someone who has be affected by cancer.  My hope is that I can fundraise $10/mile for a total goal of $1000. I will use your kindness as a fuel to help me cross the finish line. I know that I will not be able to complete this challenge by myself. Your donations and messages (see below) will help motivate me to push further and harder when I need it the most.

FILL OUT THIS Google Form <-------- (click the link) and write me a message. I will attach your message to a bracelet. As I run I will be wearing these bracelets and reading your messages for the first time.  $10 =1 bracelet= 1 Message....  $20= 2 bracelets= 2 messages and so on... I have already purchased 100 bracelets for the race.  I know this will be difficult and I will need lots of encouragement and laughs to complete this goal.  Thank you for your support. 

Adventures on the Gorge is where the race starts. It very cool resort that is located in West Virginia and is part of the New River Gorge National Park.
