Moab Utah 235 Miler- 2017 Adventure

Donation protected
So I've gotten into running very long distance, and I have been looking at what adventure I want to try next year.  In researching for races, I wanted something I haven't done yet, something that would scare and terrify me, but also allow me to see some awesome things.  I hardly ever travel, and my move to Connecticut was great and I've enjoyed some of the races here in the Northeast.  While in Indiana, I did alot of the Midwest races, but I have never experienced any races out in the West.  I've always been limited by lack of funds, but I'm not getting any younger, and I want to see new places now while I'm still able to with nothing to tie me down, and running around these new places brings me so much joy!  Not to mention the joy I feel when I am able to use these races to inspire and motivate others to try and push themselves out of their comfort zones.  Any support you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated, from the race fee, to the hotel and airfare, and all the gear.  I feel so lucky to even have a body that is able to try and attempt this, and I know that that in itself is an amazing gift, and this will definitely be something that is well out of even my comfort zone in running, but I want to do it!  I'll also be looking for a crew to keep me going strong.  The race is in October of 2017 and if I am able to get enough money, I hope to be able to do this (The race fee will increase by 200 dollars on January 21st, so hoping to have a substantial amount before then.)  Again, any amount of money is greatly appreciated.  I'm kind of a dream chaser, and ever since I heard of a 200 mile distance, I wanted to do one as a huge loop, but I always thought it just a fantasy because I'd never be able to afford it.  Here's the race website if anyone wants to see it. http://www.moab200.com/   Thanks again for all of your help.  I have been blessed with such amazing friends and family!
