The Ned Erickson run is on again. He will set out to try again to run the remaining Blue Ridge Parkway’s 469 miles. He tried back in August but was not able to complete the run due to complications. He had to stop after 5 days and 261 miles. Now he is going to complete the remaining 216 miles. Follow his progress at his Facebook page “We Run For Them”. Erikson’s reason for his run is to “raise support and awareness for Carolina Point, a Young Life Camp that caters to children with special needs, as well as The Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation” he states. He plans to finish his run on Sept. 28th. Wish him well because it is going to be tough!
Good luck Ned!
