Running to Help…
A few days ago I was contacted by a gentleman named Ali Islami. He posed an idea to me that he is working on and I am so touched that he would like my involvement.
From that conversation things have moved quickly. I was contacted by Jennifer Gustavson, a writer for the Salt Lake Tribune, who was doing an article on Ali and what he is trying to accomplish.
Today, I found the article…
Vegas ragnar runner will benefit kids in foster care
(slight correction in the article, the marathon is on Aug 21st not Aug 22nd)What an awesome thing to do Ali! I contacted my fellow Wasatch Back Ragnar team runners and after hearing Ali’s story, several of them were ready to go.
In a matter of a week things have change quite a bit. Ali and I were in contact with each other. There was an article written up in the Salt Lake Tribune and he and I have organized a team together to run in the Vegas Ragnar Relay Race in October to raise money for the Utah Foster Care Foundation.
