Chris Sams Runs Across America

Tomorrow Chris Sams plans to start a 3,000 mile, five month run across the country from coast to coast. He will be running approximately a marathon each day, starting out in Baltimore, MD and ending in San Diego.

Why? He wants to raise awareness about fitness across the country by spending each night with a different family in each city and helping to teach them about living a healthier life. Sams will take each host family out to Whole Foods, help them shop (with the help of a Whole Foods gift card), prepare dinner with them, and set up a workout and nutrition program with each family. Track his progress, volunteer as a host if you live along the route, or just learn more at  the official website for Chris’ journey.
