PeacePlayers International

The RunBreathless Challenge is simple: Choose a $ amount that you will donate for each mile you run. Then, go run.  While you're running, use the time to reflect. Think about George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery; countless names.  Focus on how you can make a difference to eradicate black inequality and racism. Then act. If you're like me, you might still be asking yourself how you can help. Donating is a start. Starting IS the first step. 

I'm challenging you to run further than you thought possible. Run until you cannot run any farther. Run until you're breathless. It's easy to recover from this type of pain and suffering. It's not easy to recover from the suffering behind racism; though that is the goal the world is fighting for right now. 

I'm raising money to benefit PeacePlayers International, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause. 

More information about PeacePlayers International: PeacePlayers International uses basketball to unite, educate and inspire young people to create a more peaceful world. Based on the premise that children who play together can learn to live together, we implement consistent, year-round sports activities that bring together children from opposite sides of religious, ethnic and cultural divides to develop friendship and mutual respect.

I chose this foundation  as I firmly believe the fitness and sporting communities have a massive role in changing the tides. I am passionate about this community and I hope that together we can inspire positive action. Please share with your friends.

Now, lace em up.
