What's More Inspiring Than A Fat Guy Running A Marathon?

Gawad Kalinga

A fat guy running a marathon for charity, that's what!

The charity I'm running for is called Gawad Kalinga, which means "To Give Care" in Filipino.

GK's mission is to destroy poverty.

Less for self, more for others, enough for all.

I set up this website last to make it easy for people to give donations to GK and within minutes my uncle donated $25. My friend Tony, who I just met two months ago, donated $20. And my rich, beautiful, and rich (yes I know I said it twice) donated $50 this morning.

So a fat guy running marathons for charity really is inspiring!
