running the sahara

I just found out that three men from three nations are running across Africa. Yes, running. Across Africa. From the west coast to the east coast of the Sahara desert. They'll be covering 4,000 miles -- about 50 miles a day for the next 80 days -- across the Sahara Desert to raise awareness for the 1.2 billion people around the world who don’t have access to clean water. Looks like they're making a documentary in the process.

Did you know that a child dies every 15 seconds due to diseases from dirty water? If you aren't already aware of the ONE campaign, you really need to check it out. Come and join us!

Every day, I like to have a hero. Today, my heroes are Charlie Engle (USA), Ray Zahab (Canada) and Kevin Lin (Taiwan).
