Help Jon raise money

Hello friends and family! I wanted to reach out and see if you’d like to support a couple of great causes — and watch me suffer (with purpose) in the process. Quick backstory: about five years ago, I took up running. Since then, it’s completely changed my life — my health, my self-esteem, and my belief that with enough hard work and commitment, anything’s possible. Over the years, I’ve made it a goal to run and fundraise for as many events and causes as I can. For the 2026 Edmonton Marathon, I’m running for The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation and MS Canada — both causes close to my family and my heart. I’ve finally cracked the sub–2-hour half marathon, so naturally, I thought, “Why not double the distance and the pain?” So here we go — 42 kilometers of glory, sweat, and questionable life choices on August 16, 2026. Let’s raise some money, do some good, and maybe even come cheer on this fat guy as I try not to crawl across the finish line.
