<div>Hi friends,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On November 8th, I’ll be running <a href="https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=121043" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Tampa Bay 100</a>, a 100-mile foot race from Ybor City to Downtown St. Pete. The race finishes November 9th, and later that night,  I will be at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/738308238683587" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cannadelic</a>, where I’ll take the stage to share my story about how psychedelics helped me overcome addiction, depression, and anxiety, and unlocked my true potential.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m dedicating this run to raise funds for <a href="https://maps.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MAPS</a>  (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies), a nonprofit that has spent nearly 40 years pioneering psychedelic research to help people heal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here’s why this matters to me:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For over a decade, I struggled with cocaine, alcohol, anxiety and depression.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In late 2022, psilocybin mushrooms gave me clarity, presence, and the courage to change.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I quit destructive habits, wrote my book Your Mindset Is Your Reality, and rediscovered my passion for challenging myself physically.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In just the last two years, I went from zero running to completing a 46-mile ultramarathon. Now, I’m taking on 100 miles.
</div>
<div>By supporting MAPS, you’re allowing the opportunity for other people to find something just as incredible that they can bring out of themselves
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Where your donation goes:
</div>
<div>75% directly to MAPS to fund life-changing psychedelic research.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>25% to race costs (entry fees, nutrition, gear, supplies) so I can push through this massive physical and mental challenge.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every dollar helps. Even $10 can make a difference—and if you can’t donate right now, sharing this campaign means the world.
</div>
<div>Thank you for supporting me, this mission, and the movement to bring healing to more people.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With gratitude,
</div>
<div>John Borden
