Help Us Get a K-9(And Watch Me Suffer for It)
A feat of questionable judgment: attempting to walk 100 miles without stopping to sleep.
Why am I voluntarily becoming a sleep-deprived zombie on the Idaho pavement? Because every mile I cover (and every blister I earn) helps launch the Franklin County Sheriff's Office K-9 Unit. We're raising funds for a high-performance drug-detection dog who will spend his days sniffing out trouble and his “off” time visiting elementary schools to build strong bonds between the local kids and our deputies.
The “Paws” for Concern
The hitch? High-performance pups don't work for kibble alone. Between the elite narcotics training, handler certification, and outfitting a patrol car, we're looking at an initial bill of $25,000–$45,000.
Since I don't have a spare $45k lying around, I'm doing the only thing I'm qualified for: walking until my legs quit.
How the “Pay-Per-Limp” Pledge Works
I'm hitting the pavement to move the needle, and I'm asking you to bet against my endurance. Here's the deal:
- Commit a dollar amount per mile. No cash upfront.
- Watch the updates. I'll post my progress while you enjoy the comfort of your couch.
- The Final Tally. When I finally collapse or reach the finish line, I'll send you a personal link with your total and the official donation page.
The Math of My Misery
- $2/mile and I hit 73 miles? That's $146 for the pup.
- $2/mile and I hit the full 100 miles? That's $200.
- $2/mile and I tap out at mile 12? Well, that's a modest $24 (and a lifetime of shame for me).
Pledge whatever feels right. Every dollar helps get our K-9 on the streets, and every mile I walk is one mile closer to a safer Franklin County — and a very long nap for your favorite Reserve Deputy.
