Hi all! I am excited to run approximately 1/12 of the distance from Diamond Lake to Bend, OR, as part of a 30+ hour relay race! We will brave steep trails, pigeon-sized mosquitos, and zero access to indoor plumbing as we traverse rural Oregon by foot and by smelly van.

More importantly, I'm honored to be running again for charity: water! Access to clean water, and the freedom that results from it, must become a universal human right. On average, it takes just a $40 donation to charity: water for a person to gain *permanent* access to safe and accessible water!

Over the past five years, I've been very humbled to run in support of c:w, and inspired by the stories of people who have persevered through so much and can now live fuller lives without having to worry daily about clean water.

The Cascade Lakes Relay takes place on June 20th, and I am already looking forward to my 2 AM run through the mountains! And it truly adds meaning to an already fun event to be supporting such a fantastic mission.
