On the weekend of March 5th, I will be completing the 4x4x48 Challenge. The challenge is to run 4 miles every 4 hours, for 48 hours. Starting at 8pm Friday night and running again at midnight, 4am, 8am, noon, and so-on until Sunday at 8pm.  This will total 48 miles in 48 hours. I think it will be more of a mental challenge than a physical one..
To motivate and inspire me to get out the door each time, I decided to start a fundraiser.
The organization I am choosing to support is Respite Care, Inc.  a nonprofit organization in Larimer County, Colorado. They provide short term, quality care for children with developmental disabilities, giving respite to their families, and enhancing the quality of life for the entire family. 
Respite Care is inspirational to me because each time I plan, train, or execute a challenge like this I feel an immense gratitude for my own health and abilities to do so. I think of those who aren’t able to train for events like this, and it motivates me to be better for myself and those around me. I am also motivated by organizations such as this one because they aid those less fortunate and their families, and they give these children experiences they may not be able to have otherwise. It makes my heart swell to think I could have an impact, with your support, by donating to a cause that will help enhance some local families quality of life. 
Your support would mean the world to me, but more importantly, it would mean the world to these children and their families. 
Thank you so much for reading and considering to help me reach my goal.
