31 For 31 Fundraising Run Please considering supporting me as I attempt to run 31 miles to raise money for the Neonatal ICU at Garnet Health in Middletown, NY

$3,000!! A few more donations have come in and adding to the total the hospital already had, we reached $3,000 total in gifts for the NICU! What an achievement! Thank you to everyone for your selfless generosity. You are making a difference in the life of someone in our community today.

Just posting a cute picture to say "THANK YOU!!" to everyone who supported the NICU through this fundraiser. I personally received over 40 separate donations totaling nearly $2,800. I am sending this to the hospital. The Foundation has received some donations directly and will give me an update next week so we can see the full impact. Your contribution will help babies within our community. Thank you so much!

The day didn't work out quite as I'd hoped. I don't know if it was nerves or just the worst possible time to get a stomach bug, but I was feeling nauseous right from the start of the run. Due to nausea I wasn't able to take in as many calories throughout my run.

Started by running 8 miles, then had to walk and run to mile 16 due to nausea. Then took a break to try to eat basic toast and crackers and went back out for a few miles. In total, I ran and walked 21 miles. Thankfully my beautiful family swooped in to save the day. My son ran 4 miles, my daughter biked 3 miles, and my wife walked 3 miles, totaling 31 miles as a family.

While, it certainly didn't work out the way I wished, I'm proud of what I was able to accomplish and proud of my family for being the support that I needed.

Love you all and thanks for following this journey.

It's go time!

In 2 days, I will attempt my fundraising run. Unfortunately, my training has not gone to plan. I could make a dozen excuses, but the fact is I didn't train enough to reach my goal.

I will still make my attempt and try to push myself as far as I can. Thank you to everyone who has supported me to this point! I hope to some day train efficiently and complete this challenge, even if it is just to prove it to myself that I can do it.

So far, we have raised $2,500. Please share with your family and friends that would like to support the Neonatal unit and let's see how much of an impact we can make!

Thank you all!

One of Evie's first bottles in the NICU. I think she started with just 5 milliliters. I'm not sure if she would be here or be who she is without the life-saving intervention of the NICU at Garnet.

Please consider sharing this fundraiser with your friends and family. We can make a difference in the lives of these precious babies.

As March 31 approaches, many people have been asking how to give to the NICU. You may send a check directly to the foundation. Giving in this way ensures you can receive a statement for your 2026 taxes if needed. You may also give at www.31for31fundraisingrun.com

Donations through the website come to me and I will forward every dollar to the hospital, but I can not provide a tax statement for you.

Thank you to everyone who has already shown their support! You are making a difference in the lives of some of the most vulnerable patients. Thank you!
