This was a fun beach walk until Winston jumped into a beach bindi bush. Some people call them sand spurs. He had about 200 on him and they were all over his face. It took a long time to get them off.
My name is Aidan Sabine and I am in the second grade at East Cooper Montessori School. For my Peace Project this year I am walking and running the Charleston Marathon and the Cooper River Bridge Run.
I am doing this to raise money for babies in the NICU at MUSC Children's Hospital and also to make more people want to walk and run and be healthy.For the Marathon in January, I have to walk and run a total of 25 miles and then run the last mile over the finish line. Last year, my brother and I walked it and this year I want to run the whole mile. If you would like to support my walks and runs, you can help me by using chip in or send a check to the Children's hospital. All the money I raise goes to the babies in the hospital. When I was born, I was in the NICU, so I know what it is like to need help.Thank you very much for your help and please follow my walks and runs! We have walked 26 miles!!! We closed the donations for the marathon and we have raised over $250 including checks!!!
We have opened a new ChipIn donation widget for my other runs...
My latest walks since I did the Charleston Marathon event in January are posted below.

I am so inspired by the incidental learning opportunities you both have encountered along the way of each walk. Sand spurs. What purpose do they serve? Why are they so sticky? Why do those little seeds have to have so much "grit" to be successful? The learning parallels are pretty amazing. That little seed us showing how much stay power it takes to make it on the world.
