    Hi Everyone,

    Hope you are well and enjoying the late summer!

    I wanted to take a minute to thank all of you who have donated toward my marathon. I am incredibly grateful and honored that you invested in charity : water as a part of my campaign! I’ll share more about where we are at with the campaign, but first a little update on the running…

    The training is just now getting HARD, I am running more per week than I ever have and the runs are now getting LOOOOONG, with last weekend and this weekend's runs being the equivalent to a half marathon. In the past, half marathons were something I worked toward and celebrated afterwards, they were a BIG achievement. Now, it's something I do every weekend. LOL.

    So, it's starting to feel hard, but that is good, because it reminds me of my WHY. As I mentioned before, I have realized that raising money for a whole community to have fresh water is far more energizing than just the challenge of training for a marathon. I AM HERE FOR THIS.

    Now some updates…you all have been VERY GENEROUS! Thank you!!

    So far, as a community, we have raised $2,440 of $10,000! That's amazing!

    This is incredible!! Well done everyone!!

    Let's goo!

    Best,
    Ben
