Dean Karnazes, the “Ultramarathon Man”, is the most famous ultra distance runner in the world, and he is also running!  His non-profit, Karno Kids – the Runathon’s primary benefiting partner – helps prevent increasingly common medical challenges, such as obesity and diabetes, by helping kids be active.  theGIVEshirt.com, an entirely non-profit movement, is increasing the global consciousness of giving – and thus making the world a healthier, happier, and better place – largely by distributing shirts printed with the word “give” and giving ALL PROCEEDS to charities.  Your donation, or pledge per mile run by Thomas Budde, Ph.D., Founder/Operator of theGIVEshirt.com, allows theGIVEshirt.com and Karno Kids to continue dedicating their time and energy to help the world!
