Full story
In January of 2018, my New Year's Resolution was to "hike more." I wound up doing more than 60 hikes over the course of the year, completing the 52 Hike Challenge, the 5 Peak Challenge, and the Coast to Crest Challenge in the process. Spending time in nature, both alone and with friends, was a balm to my soul, and the physical challenge made me feel strong, powerful, and like I could accomplish anyhing I set my mind to.
For 2019, I decided I needed a new challenge, so I'll be taking on the Trailblaze Challenge! I'll be hiking 28 MILES IN ONE DAY on the Pacific Crest Trail! The beautiful thing about this is that, in addition to being much tougher physically than anything I attempted in 2018, I have committed myself to raising money for Make-A-Wish to help grant the wishes of children with critical illnesses. With your help, it’s possible.
Wish kids are some of the bravest and sweetest kids you'll ever know. They wish to work in a pickle factory, become a superhero, go snorkeling, give their baseball team new uniforms, and push all of the buttons in a tall building's elevator. Their innocence and unexpected wisdom stays with you.
Make-A-Wish grants thousands of unique wishes each year. A lot, yes. But that’s only 50% of eligible kids. I’m fundraising so more deserving kids and their families can know the happiness, relief and renewal a wish can bring.
Please help me support this great cause by buying a t-shirt! Your support not only benefits these sweet and deserving kiddos, but also serves to encourage me that I CAN do this!!! Thank you for your support!
If you don't want to buy a t-shirt and would instead like to donate directly to my campaign, visit this link: http://site.wish.org/goto/jamieguzman
