A MESSAGE FROM Nick Trenc's Totally Terrific Time to Run Page!
I am running the 2023 Chicago Marathon on October 8, 2023 as a member of the Pat Tillman Foundation's charity group, Team Tillman. As a former Marine, it has always been a goal of mine to complete another marathon (My first occurred early during my enlistment in the Marines, 22 years ago). If each of you donate $2 per mile run or even $4 (if you dare), I will reach my goal.
This marathon will be the next step in my fitness/endurance career and my first marathon since early on during my time in the US Marines. As a disabled veteran who's undergone multiple ankle surgeries and recoveries, running has been a passion that I've not been able to pursue for a number of years. Additionally in 2022, I was signed up for a 70.3 Ironman but unfortunately got injured about 4 weeks before and was unable to participate. This marathon is going to be a big part of my comeback and I'd love to have your support in doing it!
I chose the Pat Tillman Foundation due to their support of veterans serving their communities. Thank you in advance for your contributions and support! Your donations towards my fundraising minimum will directly impact the lives of Tillman Scholars and their communities nationwide. Please visit www.pattillmanfoundation.org to learn more about the impact of Tillman Scholars in their second act of service.
