Hello my friends, as most of you know, I am on a quest to complete all 6 Abbott World Major Marathons. I am halfway to my whole goal. I am hoping that number 4 will be Tokyo, Japan in March 2026. For me to get to go, I have said I would raise $2,500 for the non-profit Action against Child Exploitation. It's a non-profit to help against child exploitation.

When I started this journey, I thought, yeah, trying to do all 6 majors is fun. But what does that truly mean? I get something for it, but what do I give back to the community? Well, this is one way I can, and I hope you will help me get to my goal of completing the 6 majors and also help me give back to kids that don't have a voice. This will help with that.

As you might or might not know, getting into one of the majors is not easy. For the running of the 2026 marathon, I am hoping to be one of only 5,000 runners that have this option to run for a charity. I am not one to ask for anything, but this means a lot to me to ask. I am not asking for a lot; $1, $5, I am appreciative of what you can give. I will be posting updates on my training, so please help and follow along on this wild journey. Again, thank you so much.

Matthew
