THE STORY:

I'm running the Boston Marathon on April 18th to raise money for Grist.org, the leading non-profit website for environmental news and commentary. Like most marathons, the Boston course is 26.2 miles. So you might consider donating
$1/mile ($26.20)
$5/mile ($131.00)
$10/mile ($262.00)
to help Grist.org bring environmental reporting to life with a dose of humor.
In fact, please do consider it. I'm going to try to raise a total of $2,620.00, a cool hundred dollars for every mile I cover.
Thanks for your support,
Erik
