The Cat is out of the bag……..
I am participating in The Epic5 Challenge again this year! It begins Wednesday Oct 24th.
The EPIC5 Challenge is an unprecedented athletic and spiritual journey which begins on the island of Kauai before traveling on consecutive days to O’ahu, Moloka’i and Maui and concluding in Kona. 5 Iron distance triathlons – 5 consecutive days on 5 Hawaiian islands
Each day will entail a full iron distance triathlon — 2.4 mile swim, 112-mile bike and 26.2 mile run
I participated in last year’s Epic5 Challenge and had to pull myself from the challenge early due to injury and only continue from then on with partial days.

Each athlete is also encouraged to raise money for a charity of their choice and I am choosing Jason Lester’s Neverstop Foundation
Last year I was able to raise a great amount of money and this year I would like to try again.
I am not asking for much at all - How about $5 for each day that I finish? That would only be $25 ,although there is no max or min if you would like to help in any way. Just mention my name on the donation form so they know it is in my honor.
Any amount would be fine and posting and forwarding this to your friends and family would be great too.
Sound good? Details and links can be found on www.EPIC5.com

Donate and Support The Never Stop Foundation!
The Never Stop Foundation is committed to improving the opportunities of challenged youth by addressing their unmet needs and supporting them to overcome the obstacles they face in achieving their potential. Using the platform of athletic and artistic endeavors, the team members and community of the Never Stop Foundation seek to raise awareness and funding for programs that will effectively address those needs. Children are provided a structured, challenging, integrated curriculum and are encouraged to use their gifts and talents to improve their own lives and the lives of others.
Many Thanks
