We are initiating a fund raising campaign to raise up Ysa. A 20 year Marine veteran who has found purpose in ultra marathon running. “I felt like I could never recreate the bonding, intensity and overall fulfillment of combat. That was the case until I found ultra.” Ysa has been training up for the upcoming Tahoe 200 in June and wanted to take this opportunity to relieve some of the financial stress by raising enough money to sponsor the lodging and travel for his family and race crew. The goal is 15k.
Ysa’s life story is inspiring. He is a dedicated husband, father and son. 100 percent of the donations for this fund raising effort will go directly to Ysa.
