Story
In just one week, my dear friend Tim Edwards and I will embark on an extraordinary challenge – participating in the 38th Marathon Des Sables, often hailed as the most demanding self-sufficient foot race on the planet.
We're set to conquer six marathons across six days in the vast Sahara Desert of Morocco.
This marks my second attempt, as I fell short by just one day and 42km in 2017, leaving some unfinished business on the desert sands.
Our cause for this grueling endeavor is to support the Reduce Our Carbon Charitable Foundation, an incredible organization dedicated to providing "Justa" smokeless stoves to low-income families in Nicaragua's rural areas.
These innovative stoves, equipped with a chimney, not only reduce wood consumption by 50% but also significantly cut down on indoor smoke, vastly improving air quality and reducing the risk of respiratory illnesses among families who rely on indoor open fires for cooking.
By making a contribution you're playing a pivotal role in transforming lives and taking a stand for the environment. Every donation is a step towards a healthier, more sustainable future for families in need.
Join us in this mission to make a difference — your support is immensely appreciated.
