Hey everybody! I have been doing this for a few years now, and decided to switch it up a bit!!
This year, I am running my FIRST half marathon! My fundraiser this year will be all about the half. My goal is to run the whole 13.1 miles in under 2 hours, just under 9:10/mile.
Donations will be based on how fast I can finish the half. The goal is to get a donation for every 5 seconds that I am able to shave off.
For example, if you pledge to donate 1 dollar/seconds, and I end up finishing at 1:59:18, then you would give 8 dollars. If I finished in 1:50.00, then you would give 120 dollars.
Now I don’t think I will come anywhere close to 10 minutes faster than expected, but realistically I am hoping to finish more around 1:56.00. You can choose to donate whatever you want, and if the timing challenge doesn’t do it for you, then feel free to pass on a donation regardless of the race time!
I am so excited for this race, and am hoping I can make an impact on a bigger level than just my individual race, so please consider partnering with me and Movember to do what we can!
Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men. Too many men are ‘toughing it out’, keeping their feelings to themselves and struggling in silence. Movember is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030, and I want to help them get there.
As a fundraiser I will be running my first ever Half Marathon this year, November 18th, with a goal of 2 hours. Donation information can be found in my home page bio/intro!

Unfortunately I won't be able to continue with my goal of running 60 miles. I am still waiting on my test results, but my sister tested positive for Covid and I lost my smell yesterday. I also can't walk up the stairs without breathing heavily so running any distance is kind of out of the question for a little while. The 'stache is still growing and the money is still comin' in so lets keep this thing going! Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated, you have made this a really meaningful experience and I appreciate everyone's support!
