A s I have mentioned in this article on Wednesday, April 15, 2015, I believe in helping colleagues out in achieving their goals; and today, I am asking you to please consider supporting Charles Barkowski of Running with Miles as he participates in six marathons on six continents in only 4.5 days in an attempt to raise a minimum of $17,000.00 for a worthy cause in which he believes.
This event will commence on the afternoon of Sunday, September 6, 2015 and will conclude in the early afternoon of Thursday, September 10, 2015. Here is the schedule and locations of the runs in which Charles will participate:
Date | Local Time | City | Country |
---|---|---|---|
September 6 | 14:30 | Thessaloniki | Greece |
September 7 | 02:30 | Cairo | Egypt |
September 7 | 15:00 | Abu Dhabi | United Arab Emirates |
September 8 | 19:00 | Sydney | Australia |
September 9 | 12:00 | Santiago | Chile |
September 10 | 10:30 | Washington, District of Columbia | United States |
Charles is also inviting you to run with him in either one, some, or all of the marathons; and you do not even have to complete any of the entire marathons in which he is running. “I do not receive anything in return for raising money for them other than the satisfaction that I am able to do a little something to say thanks.”
The Wounded Warrior Project — the cause for which Charles is attempting to raise funds — is a not-for-profit organization which works with and helps veterans of the United States who have “incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound, co-incident to their military service on or after September 11, 2001 and their families.”
