The Central Texas Food Bank has launched a campaign encouraging people to solicit donations of $21 for covering 21 miles in the next 21 days.  

I'm committing to take part in the fight against hunger by logging 21 miles in 21 days.  Actually, I've set my goal at double that: 42 miles, on my feet, over the next 21 days.  Feel free to double your contribution accordingly; I am :) 

I typically cover 21 miles a week, but my post-COVID lungs are not quite there yet, so 42 will be challenging enough.  But this is exactly why I am doing it.  I  believe that the amazingly mild experience I had with the 'rona was due in no small part to my health going into it-- health fueled largely by my nutrition.  And I want to help others have the food they need to fuel their body to fight through whatever they are facing (COVID or otherwise).  

Last year the Food Bank distributed nearly 54 million meals to our neighbors in need across Central Texas. The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically increased the need for their services, with thousands of families each month turning to the Food Bank for the first time in their lives. 

You can help by donating to my fundraiser - right here - and I'll keep you updated on my progress by logging each mile I walk or run.  Every $1 provides 4 meals for Central Texans facing hunger.  Donate today!
