Welcome to threemg.com! We’re live and ready to rock the next five months.

Who are we? Three out-of-shape guys who love sports and kids and want to give something back. Our “Mission” page and the previous post outlines what it is we are doing, and we’re ready to let you know that we want to hear your comments and hopefully start seeing the donations roll in.

We’ve been training for the past month and half to prepare for the Half IronMan training program that will start in mid-January. Yes, you read that right, we are training for a training program! Our previous combined workout program included two 10K’s and two 5K’s in the past two years. Total. No workouts in between, we just ran the races cold as they were team builders.

But we love sport and felt there couldn’t be a better way to improve the lives of others than through it. The draw? We’re not going to just run a half marathon, or ride a half century on the bike. We’re going to compete in the second most grueling endurance event in the world - the Half IronMan: a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run. 70.3 total miles of endurance exhilaration. Why? For the kids who don’t get to visit the magical place that we work at every day. For the kids who are told that the only week they could come is already filled.

Our goal is to raise $1,000 for each mile of the race. Needless to say, our work is cut out for us. That $70,300 will be donated to Give Kids the World as they build 70 more villas to add-on to their 70 acre resort for kids with life-threatening illness. Through support, words of encouragement, and donation, please join us in GIVING KIDS THE WORLD!

We’re just getting started…
