The run
On November 21st, 2026, I'm running 100 Kilometers continuously.
The course is a 5-mile loop in Eaton (With a checkpoint in front of the Eaton Rec Center), run 12.5 times. It will start at 6 A.M. and go until around 8 P.M.. It'll take somewhere around 13-14 hours.
Anyone can come. You can run a lap with me, stand at a turn, or just stop
by. There's no entry fee and nothing to sign up for.
Note: The run WAS originally set to be 100 miles, but per advice of my coach, prolonged injuries, sickness, and a short training build caused me to drop it to 100K (about 63 miles).
Where the money goes
Every dollar from donations, and the profits from merch sales go to the families' memorial fund at Bank of Colorado in Eaton.
My own costs -shoes, food, publication- are covered separately or out of my own pocket. None of it comes out of what you give.

I've been a runner coming up on 4 years! I mainly specialized in the mile, and have a lot of training in other sports under my belt. After the accident happened, I wanted to use my skills to raise awareness to people. My goal is to remind people to live like their may be no tomorrow, and raise money for the Rinker's, Nider's, and Dirksen's memorial fund.
I'm currently in school at Aims Community College in my fourth semester. My lifelong goal is to become an ER Doctor, become a father, and set an example!!
