Few people have ever completed the gruelling 2,800 mile run from one coast of the United States to the other. However, after the recent catastrophe in Haiti, Abe Clark has been inspired to help out by attempting this mammoth task on the 15th February this year. Abe will attempt to raise $100,000 in order to repair 500 incapacitated hand pumps.
His journey will take about 136 days and, if completed, he will be the 12th person ever to succeed in this coast to coast epic.
He will push all his supplies in a baby jogger, and has appealed for somewhere to stay and people to run with him. His attempt with be in aid of providing water for the survivors of the Haiti earth quake still struggling with basic services.
