THE FINAL MILE: 7 MARATHONS. 7 CONTINENTS. 7 DAYS.

Dear friends, family, and fellow adventurers,

You’ve seen me chase the impossible—from conquering the Abbott Six Star Majors, to racing self-supported ultramarathons across 5 continents, to earning the rare Grand Slam Plus medal. You’ve cheered me on as I traded sleep for sunrise runs and swapped comfort for challenge in deserts, mountains, and jungles. This journey has been as much yours as it’s been mine.

Now, I stand on the edge of my most ambitious chapter yet:

7 Marathons. 7 Continents. 7 Days.

Yes, you read that right. One marathon each day, on each continent—back-to-back, fueled by determination, community, and a dash of madness.

But here’s the honest truth: I’ve poured my soul and savings into these adventures. From the Atacama to Antarctica, this dream has been self-funded. Now, to make this dream real, I’m turning to my tribe—you.

The Ask: 500 Believers. $100 Each.

That’s it.

No mega-sponsors. No corporate logos. Just 500 humans who believe in grit, in dreams, and in doing epic things for the sheer joy of it.

Your minimum of $100 (or more) will help cover the cost of this globe-spanning expedition. I will cover additional expenses on flights, hotel, and food. If we hit 80% of the goal (~EUR35,000), it’s a go. If we don’t? Your donation comes right back to you—no questions, no charges, no regrets. I will pay the margins of GoFundme from my own savings.

If we raise at least EUR35,000, I will bridge the gap myself. That’s how much this matters to me.

What You Get (Besides Bragging Rights):

• Your name, in bold, printed on my running gear—my shirt becomes your flag, flown across all seven continents.(mockup attached)

• A souvenir version of the shirt with your name on it.

• A photo of the shirt on each continent—with glaciers, deserts, savannahs, and cityscapes as your backdrop.

• A Certificate of Global Awesomeness, officially recognizing your virtual presence in this record-setting adventure.

Want to go bigger?

• $200: Your name appears larger—stand out as a power supporter.

• $500: Get your photo next to your name—yes, your face will go places even passports envy.

And There’s More—We Give Back.

20% of all donations go to a charity we choose together. That means your contribution powers this journey and uplifts a cause we believe in.

This isn’t just a fundraiser. It’s a celebration of courage, connection, and what happens when people believe in each other. It’s a race across the world—but also a race toward something bigger: proving that ordinary people can do extraordinary things, together.

So join me. Be part of the story. Let’s run the world—literally.

With gratitude, grit, and global dreams,

Sandeep
