I'm running 13 Miles for the 13 fallen soldiers on 8/29/21

Every penny I receive will go directly to the Wounded Warrior Project! I don’t want any other company or business dipping their hands into the proceeds, that is why I am doing this myself.

It is hard for me to put feeling into words on this topic, but I want to be able to do my part in helping military families. I love my family and the military service men and women who give us the ability to have our daily freedoms. God Bless The Troops, and God Bless the United States of America.
