One Team.One Goal.
Running a marathon is great, but running a marathon in support of others doing life-changing work makes it even more impactful.
It's a privilege to run and use my body to support the vital work of others I admire. It was an obvious choice for me to do my small part in raising more awareness for these excellent financial nonprofits so they
expand their work.
"If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go together.
Why “Relentless Effort“
Relentless effort is the driving force behind many of the world's most outstanding achievements. It embodies the unwavering determination to pursue a goal despite obstacles, setbacks, and fatigue.
​
This kind of effort requires physical stamina, mental resilience, a steadfast belief in one's vision, and the ability to adapt and improve continuously.
​
Whether it’s an athlete training for a championship, a scientist researching a cure, or an artist perfecting their craft, relentless effort transforms dreams into reality.
​
It teaches us that success is not a matter of chance but a result of consistent hard work and an unyielding spirit.
Lets 5x this GOAL!
