After the success I found in my 100 miles for Relay for Life, I decided that I would join a Hood to Coast team.
Our team this year is through Living Water International, and we are fundraising to build a couple wells. There are 783 Million people without safe drinking water in this world.
Everyday I take for granted that I can walk into my kitchen and fill up my water bottle and not worry about boiling it or having to travel to get my water, it is right next to me. Many walk miles one way to the nearest well everyday to get water. That's time spent that could be used to help bring income into the family or educate children.
My goal is to raise $500 towards Living Water International.
I have 3 legs during Hood to Coast. A 7 miler, a 4 miler and a 3 miler. The last two are cake. BUT I have never ever ran 7 miles before in my life. But as of today I am currently at 5 miles. I have over a month and until Hood to Coast and just need to go 2 more miles.
Join me as I help build wells with the rest of my team!
Here is the link for our fundraising page.
Thanks Everyone!
