600 Mile Run for Elephants

A Journey of Endurance, Devotion, and Protection for Elephants 🐘

This May, I’m beginning something that feels less like a goal and more like a calling.

Between May 16 and October 26,2026, I will run 600 miles in support of The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee, a place dedicated to the rescue, recovery, and lifelong care of elephants who have endured captivity, hardship, and displacement.

Each mile is a small act of devotion. Each step is a reminder that healing whether human or elephant takes time, space, and energy.

Here’s how you can be part of it:

• Sponsor a mile or more

• Make a one-time gift

• Follow the journey and share the mission

100% of proceeds will go directly to the Sanctuary.

I’ll be documenting the journey along the way, sharing miles logged, lessons learned, and the stories of the elephants who inspired this run in the first place.

This is more than a physical challenge. It’s a commitment to endurance, to compassion, and to protecting the quiet, powerful lives of our elephant friends.

If this speaks to you, I invite you to join this adventure with me. Learn more at www.FollowingtheNomadStar.earth.
