50 Fives by Fifty-Five

50 fives by Fifty-Five. That means I am going to be running in 50 5k road races, with at least one in every state, before I reach the age of….. well, you figure it out!

I am running across the country for a purpose- developing programs for math and science education of young people in the U.S.

The 3 point14 Foundation is a non-profit charitable entity whose mission is to reach out to young persons in need to encourage and engage them in active math and physical sciences learning. I encourage you to learn more about the Foundations work at http://www.3point14.org/.

This country is full of very smart young people.But there are far too many smart kids who cannot or do not have access to an adequate learning environment or experience and they need our help. Hopefully, raising awarness of the purpose will move people’s spirit to volunteer their time, or contribute to the cause.
