Run Tellman Run

I posted a while back on a cool story to aid homeless kids! This is the latest and I think it's still a cool story. Since September 9th, the movement has logged 405 miles!

The man: Tellman (guy in photo with no shoes) left his shoes in New York City and has dedicated himself to running cross country barefoot to raise $100,000,000.00 to aid homeless youth in a project called RunTellmanRun.

He is currently approaching Pittsburgh on Route 130, averaging about 20 miles per day, and plans to run through downtown Pittsburgh on Tuesday. Pittsburgh Steelers’ Brett Keisel (along with his wife) are going to meet Tellman tomorrow when they share lunch with residents of The Hub, a homeless relief program of Three Rivers Youth located in the Strip district.

Also, remember the guys who wrote Same Kind of Different as Me (homeless guy Denver Moore & art dealer Ron Hall)? Well, they have a new book called What Difference Do It Make. Check it out!

Love,
Jen
