So how many hours do you train a week? :)
Cheers, Blitz

Doing your Ironman for charity is a great motivator.
I did mine for the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
When I crossed the finish line I felt a great sense of accomplishment for myself and for the kids I helped.
Kudos to you. Keep up the good work.
I will check out your site about making a donation. :D
Nothing to it, but to do it

I had actually considered doing this (though I won't be doing an IM until next year). How do you guys go about it? Do you basically go around asking people for money, saying you're doing an Ironman?

What do training for an Ironman, fighting world hunger and some spare change have in common? It’s my 19 Cents an Hour Campaign, through which I hope to provide 50,000 school lunches to kids from developing nations around the world. I’m asking people to donate 19 cents for every hour I spend training from Jan 2 to June 25, 2006 for my first Ironman distance triathlon in Coeur d’Alene Idaho.
The proceeds will go to the World Food Programme’s 19 Cents a Day Campaign, which raises funds used to provide a daily lunch for hungry students in developing nations around the world. For more information visit my website at: http://19centsanhour.tripod.com or email me at: . Its small change for us, but big change for the world’s hungry children.
Thanks,
Greg
