30 down

With nearly one month down, I've knocked down 136.6 miles. It's taken 20 hours, 56 minutes and 56 seconds and I've burned 20,126 calories.

Is there anyone out there that knows about the kindness of local businesses? Not anywhere in particular, but just in general. I'd like to see about getting local Kalamazoo businesses to match, or supplement in some way, the individual donations that are received by way of my activity. I'm still trying to figure out this whole blogging experience, but you're supposed to be able to leave a post. If you have any experience raising funds, let me know.

One last thing. It was warm out today. I can't speak for yesterday, but it was even warmer today.

  1. Hi Derek, my names Jessi and I saw this via Elizabeth. You can go around to local businesses in Kalamazoo and ask for donations and some of them will donate. You may want to type up a letter (a very official looking letter) that explains what you plan to do with the funds or how they will be used. I would suggest strictly local businesses though as others will be less likely to donate. You could always hang out at the flagpoles for a day to raise funds too. Best of luck!
