I'm participating in the David Goggins 4x4x48 challenge from March 5th-7th; during this challenge I will be running 4 miles, every 4 hours, for 48 hours, starting at 11pm EST. This is the 2nd Annual 4x4x48 Challenge, and it is meant to raise money for numerous charities and bring people together in what has become a very divided world. See David Goggins discuss the challenge here: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CKR4hS5lpCl/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link .  You can read more about the challenge on the website https://www.gogginschallenge.com/ .

I'm using this event as an opportunity to raise money for the non-profit organization, Patriots for Veterans Inc. This is a great organization that helps connect and build a community among Veterans through different activities and outdoor excursions. Additionally, the organization provides an environment for veterans to heal.

SFC Nathan Fair explains that, "what they've done for me, was bring 25 guys from my old company back together for a reunion/retreat. Guys who have gotten out of the Army, and some of us still in, and they put us back into an environment where we operate with one another, sleep next to each other again, and partake in various events from hunting, hiking, paint balling, and many other outdoor events. They gave us the opportunity to have kind of therapeutic sit downs as a whole, and recollect on what is bothering some of our guys, and what makes them tick. It was life altering for me."
