Donate : Hey Guys, big ask, my buddy Maggie is racing down in Tennessee at a Laz race this weekend to try and raise over $5,000 for charity, she will be running 4 miles every hour till...well she either can’t finish it or stops, some people go like 3 days.
Herewith here post and link to the charities. We made a donation and hope you will consider it too, thank you so much.
From Maggie:
Please read. I promise this is not random blabbering.
Next week I will leave once again to drive to Tennessee. I will compete in a race I have been looking forward to since before I even knew I got into Barkley. A race I will probably be less likely to get lost during but may end up covering more distance than I ever have in my entire life: Big Backyard Ultra. It is a last man standing race. Every hour on the hour we start another 4.16667 mile loop until only one man or woman remains. I have been told it is stupid and pointless, also crazy. And some say it sounds fun and exciting. I am sure it will be all of those but I want it to be for something more than myself.
For the next two weeks, I will be posting about two charities I am raising money and awareness for leading up to and during the race at Bigs. I know the founder of these charities personally. So I know the money goes 100% to help these causes. His name is Greg Armstrong and he was my teammate in 2015 at the IAU 24 Hour World Championships.
We completed a Barkley loop together this past spring and I struggle to find a more selfless, strong and interesting person. His charity is called Run4Water.
They build wells for people who don’t have running water. And yes that includes people in TN, in this very country! You can read about it here.
The button to donate is also on that page.

The second charity is run by Greg’s daughter and is called 84 Days. Girls in developing countries miss on average 84 days of school because they just do not have access to feminine hygiene products and with missed school they fall behind. You can read more about it here as well as find a link to donate.

I am trying to raise over $5,000 for these charities as that is how much is needed for their next mission. Please help me in reaching this goal. I will be posting more info each day so you will have many opportunities to learn more about the awesome work both these charities do. It will also be great motivation for me at Bigs. Please consider a donation in any amount to either of these charities. Thank you!! #LastWomanStanding #Run4water#84days
