Pushing Human Limits.  A Journey of Grit, Endurance &amp; Purpose. If there are any leftover funds from this fundraiser, we will donate them to Bodhi Springs Mountain Retreat Center. A place where I’ve personally witnessed many men, veterans and humans of all walks of life move through some deep and profound parts of their healing journey.  But FIRST! Help me pay my crew.  We’ve got no big sponsors and it’s a huge ask to take 15 friends away from their own lives for potentially 10 days so I can do something crazy. Wouldn’t it be amazing if I could actually throw my pacers some cash and pay the support crew as well?     On June 26th, I will begin a 500-mile run from Colorado Springs to Moab, covering 75 miles per day for 7 days. This journey isn’t just about running—it’s about proving what’s possible when we push beyond limits. It’s about the discipline, the suffering, and the breakthroughs that come when we commit fully to something bigger than ourselves.

But I can’t do this alone. To make this mission happen, I need your support.

The Challenge

This route is brutal—45,000 feet of climbing, high-altitude mountain passes, scorching desert terrain, and relentless physical and mental fatigue. Every day will be a battle against exhaustion, pain, and doubt.  My body is ready. My mind is ready. Now, I need the logistical support to bring this vision to life.
   A documentary team will be following the run, capturing every step—the suffering, the moments of doubt, the breakthroughs—so we can share this journey with the world.   What Your Support Will Fund: I WANT TO PAY THE CREW!! How cool would it be to pay my 15 friends who are joining me for this weeklong adventure?? It’s no vacation for them, it’s a big job with many sleepless nights ahead for them as well.   To complete this mission, we need to raise $15,000 for:  •	RV/Van rentals to house the crew and provide crucial support  •	Food &amp; hydration for myself and the support team  •	Gas &amp; travel costs for the mobile support unit  •	Hotel stays for essential recovery stops  •	Ice baths, NormaTec boots, sauna &amp; recovery tools to keep my body functioning
  •	Stipends for crew &amp; pacers, who are dedicating their time and energy to making this happen  •	Production costs to document and share this journey
   How You Can Help:  1.	Donate – Every dollar counts in making this run a reality.
  2.	Share – Spread the word to help bring this vision to life.
  3.	Join the Journey – If you’re in Colorado or Utah, come run a few miles with me.   This isn’t just about me. It’s about seeing what’s possible when we refuse to quit. It’s about pushing through pain, through doubt, through the barriers we think define us.

Thank you for your support. Let’s make this happen.
