| PROJECT 13 - 13 MILES, 13 MONTHS, 13 RACESOver 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.
