What you think of my Goal of Roller Bladeing Around North America To raise money for Childhood Cancer Research and other Charities? I've Desided To fullfill the goal sometime soon. been training even in this cold winter time on offroad blades for the last 3 weeks. I desided this after the Death of My Grandfather and his Death has givven me a Reason to continue to train. I was wodering what people thought of the idea and weather or not people consider me nuts for even thinking of atempting the Blade trip? |

Seems like a nice idea, as long as you keep the cause in your mind. Without the reasonable charity, and just for the fame and fortune, I'd call you a nut-case. However, I've never quite understood how you earn money by skating, walking, biking, or any other things of the such for charity, care to explain? |

people make donations based on distance or just flat donations. i.e. "ill give a dollar to X charity for every mile you ride, walk, run, etc." or at least from my experience..... ----- as for the idea, be sure to plan. i dont know your age and whatnot, but how are you going to pay for lodging, food, etc. and will you lose your job for this, what affects will that have, ect. etc. |

People donate / give money per each mile, or other things like that. |

That's very thoughtful of you, but it's going to be difficult to go through different climate and weather. |

climate and weather is where my Military training comes into play. lol got to love basic boot camp and arctic survival training and Desert Survival training. i hope i can do it. but it's worth a try. Even if i try and fail i would still raise at least some founds. |
