PROJECT 13 - 13 MILES, 13 MONTHS, 13 RACES

Over the last several years, I've seen a lot of people attempt several different challenges in order to increase awareness of a paticular movement.  This has motivated me to attempt to do the same.  I will admit that my idea is very un-original, but if I'm successful in hurdling this obstacle, I would very much like to create a foundation and support our disabled veterans fighting overseas. 

Through this foundation, I will be aspiring to raise money and increase awareness of the daily challenges of our wounded warriors have to endure on a daily basis.  As a veteran, my heart and soul goes out to those who fight for us and willing to lay there life on the line for this nation's freedom.

With this being said, I have come up with the idea to run 13 half marathons in 13 months.  This is really a test run for me to get into shape and to really come up with a true challenge that will gain attention and momentum to really bring out the original objective of supporting our disabled veterans.  

Within these 13 months, I will be developing an appropriate business plan that will strategically include several businesses that share my vision and their need to reach out to our military heros.

Hey Jon,
I'd like to contribute to this great cause. I pledge to donate $50 to the wounded warrior project for each of the 13 1/2 marathons you do.

So you're running all of 2 miles in the week before your marathon?  Is this a recovery strategy or something?

Nice job on your page. Check out a couple of my blogs where I show how to change the background on your page or change the mouse cursor.

Nice website too!

Your page is looking good Jon!  Let me know if you have any questions setting things up.  We should be having another site update to fix a bunch of bugs shortly so keep that in mind...  It looks like you have a good thing going!
