Hello Friends!

Wai is running a new event this year, and we need everyone to follow the event page! If you don't already follow Run 4 Miles please follow it now! Wai is running for two local charities during Labor Day Weekend! He will attempt to run 200 miles in 48 hours utilizing a 4.1 mile loop. For more information, please follow our new page!

Wai will attempt to run a 4-mile loop 50 times in 48 hours on the Labor Day Weekend to raise funds and awareness for Parkinson's and Youth Hunger.

Hey friends, I’m at it again!!!

It's 50 days to the Labor Day Weekend, just looking ahead and wondering…
- How does running or walking a 4-mile loop sound to you?
- How about running it 50 times or 200 miles in one go?
- What if I say I want to have it done in 48 hours to make the Labor Day BBQ?

Mark your calendar (8/30 – 9/1) and come out to run/walk with me. The start/finish of each loop will be at the Green Street Eatery located at 7 Emerson Avenue Levittown NY 11756.

We are dedicating this run to support 2 amazing local organizations with missions reaching far beyond Long Island and positively impacting the lives of many:
1) The Thomas Hartman Center for Parkinson’s Research at Stony Brook University – dedicated solely to basic science research into the causes of Parkinson’s disease and its symptoms.
2) Agape Meals for Kids – directly addresses childhood hunger and food insecurity faced by children on Long Island through their Meals for Kids Backpack Weekend Program.

Stay tune for more info how you can support my latest journey to create lasting footprints for years to come.🙏
