My name is Nolan, and I recently qualified to represent Team USA at the world championship for ultra running in the 50k distance. This race is being held in India, and while it’s an incredible honor, the costs of travel, lodging, and food are more than I can manage on my own. I’ve dedicated years to training and pushing my limits, and this opportunity means the world to me.

Just a few days ago, my wife and I welcomed our baby into the world on November 29th. The original race date was December 7th, so I had to turn down my spot to focus on my family. In a turn of luck, the race was postponed until March, giving me the chance to claim my spot—a dream come true! God gives us many blessings and works in mysterious ways, and I am so grateful for the health of my family and this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I’m reaching out for help to make this dream possible. Your support will go directly toward travel, lodging, and food expenses. It will also help support my family through this challenging endeavor. If I’m fortunate enough to exceed my fundraiser amount, I plan to donate a portion to the Ronald McDonald House Foundation to help other families in need. Thank you for considering being part of my journey and for any support you can offer.
