Kilometers 4 Katie

[F16WarBird]

Folks,

On November 22nd, I will be running in the Philadelphia Marathon to raise money for the Make A Wish foundation. I'm running in memory of Katie Johnson and will run in Stormtrooper armor because Katie was a huge Star Wars fan and would've loved it. Of course, I will be wearing full highland garb along with the armor.

I'm spearheading an international campaign called “Kilometers 4 Katie”. Its purpose is to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and to raise awareness of the organization and all of the fantastic work they do to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions and provide them with hope, strength, and joy. The Philadelphia Marathon is just the beginning.

“Kilometers 4 Katie,” or “Km4KT” for short, is a group whose mission to encourage individuals to participate in events in their own towns as a member of Team: Km4KT. We may be geographically separated, but that doesn’t mean aren’t unified.

I know that one person can make a difference in the lives of others.

One person already has made that difference, and her name was Katie.

So if you happen to be in Philly on November 22nd and see a kilted stormtrooper running you'll know why!
