The Purpose of the "50-Mile Dolphin Dash"
Welcome to my blog leading up to the American Cetacean Society's 2nd Annual "50-Mile Dolphin Dash" fundraiser run on Wednesday, July 6th, Monterey, CA. I'm willing to shed 50 miles worth of blood, sweat, and (possibly) tears to raise funds to attend the annual meeting of the International Whaling Commission (IWC) in St. Helier, Jersey (UK), where ACS will be speaking out against commercial whaling and compromises to international whale protection measures. I'm also the Executive Director of ACS, so I put my heart and "sole" where my mouth is.

Mile 10: ACS Dolphin Dash
Cheryl is doing great. She hit the 10 mile mark no problem. Had to change her socks and drink some liquid protein and now she is on the move again. For live video updates go to the American Cetacean Society-National's facebook page.
Way to go, Cheryl.
