We wanted to let you know about an event that’s taking place right now called Running Hope Through America.

From April 19 to June 19, 2010, world class ultra runner Lisa Smith Batchen is making strides to become the first person ever to run 50 miles in each of the 50 states. Accompanied by her loyal support group, Lisa is raising funds for charity.

Lisa has already been featured on Good Morning America, New York Nightly News and CNN. The more attention she can draw, the closer her organization, Dreamchasers Outdoor Adventures, will come to their $1,000,000 life-saving goal.

One can only imagine the physical and mental determination it takes to complete such a challenge. Help support Lisa by making a donation, raising awareness for Running Hope Through America on your own blog / website or catching up with her along the way.
