Hello!
As many of you may already know, I will be attempting my first iron distance triathlon this August in Louisville, Kentucky. I figured training for a race I've never done, raising a son, and having a full time job was just not enough. So, in the spirit of Ironman, I am going to be raising some money (and of course awareness) for an organization here in Middle Georgia, The Methodist Home.
The vision of The Methodist Home is that, “within our walls a child receives more physical care, more love, understanding, and encouragement than he is likely to experience without …” (adapted from Spencer Millham) http://www.themethodisthome.org/
In not so many words, it means a lot of awesome people, helping and mentoring a lot of awesome kids.
So, we will be raising money to buy bikes and other gym equipment. "How can I help?" you may ask. That is a very good question, theoretical person..
The race is 140.6 miles, so lets round to 141, because well, math is hard. We are going to try to get people to sponsor each mile with a ten dollar donation. So, if we can get every mile sponsored, that is $1,410 that can be used for the Children's Methodist Home.

We will have a way to donate on this page very soon! Stay tuned.
Thanks,
