4x4x48

Tax deductible
Hi everyone.  My name is Ronan O'Brien and I am taking on the David Goggins 4x4x48 this week beginning March 5th. I am planning to run 4 miles, every 4 hours for 48 hours!  I am taking on this personal challenge to raise awareness and funding for Hope House Ministries in Port Jefferson, NY.

I first came across David Goggins about 8 months ago and learned about his amazing journey of hardship, dedication, transformation, and inspiration. Like many of us he may be a little rough around the edges but the power of his message is undeniable. I encourage anyone to look up his story and/or read his book — I was blown away. Some of the obstacles he overcame include an abusive childhood, a learning disability, racism, and obesity — he became a decorated Navy Seal Veteran, an extreme endurance athlete, a top motivational speaker for pro-athletes and business moguls, and someone who has raised millions for charities such as the Special Operations Warriors Fund.

He has inspired me to be super-vigilant in maintaining a healthy body, mind, and spirit. Part of that involves doing things that are uncomfortable and stepping outside of our comfort zones to discover what we are truly capable of. That is what this 4x4x48 Challenge represents for me — and that is also what Hope House has meant for me. I am NOT an endurance athlete by any stretch of the imagination, and I have never done anything like this before! It will be a monumental CHALLENGE no doubt, but for a great cause in Hope House Ministries to which I can personally attest to the amazing services they provide.

As Father Frank often touches on his homilies, in a time when there is so much divisiveness, this event is a rare opportunity to come together with people all over the world for some amazing causes!

Please join me by sponsoring a “per mile” amount at www.hhm.org/4x4x48_challenge/ or by making a donation to be added to this effort.

My fundraising goal is $12,000 but I would like to raise $2,000 of that amount on GoFundMe.

Please include the following HASTAGS with any posts to help grow awareness:
