The island of Tahiti is 4,109 miles from Los Angeles. Brad Light and I are going to run there. Intrigued?

Starting in January 2011 we will run the equivalent distance it would take to get us to Tahiti. At the same time we put $1 in a savings account for every mile we run. By the time we get to 4,109 miles, not only will we have essentially run the distance to get to Tahiti, we will have enough money saved for our getaway! Gotta have money to get there, gotta run to get money.

See first blog entry for more details on the genesis of this journey.
