SURVIVAL CHALLENGE - I will not give up!

Today wasn't as bad as yesterday, and I have hope that it was worse than tomorrow will be.  I'm making some sort of daily progress.  Two miles of running and one mile of biking adds 3 more miles completed towards my goal for today.  So far 8 miles complete this week and only 4 more to go!!!  Woo hoo!!

Remember... only 12% of the world's population consumes 85% of its consumable water on average.  Moreover, that 12% lives in the small developed world, or as some call it, the Global North.  Let's encourage the 12% to share some of that life sustaining water with the other 88% who so direly need it.  ACCESS TO CLEAN DRINKABLE WATER IS A HUMAN RIGHT NOT A PRIVILEGE!
