Day 2



















Day two of The Hunger 500 is in the books! Daphne joined Joe for the first couple miles of the run, we stopped and had lunch at a delicious BBQ joint called the Black Hog in Frederick, Maryland, spoke with a local news reporter along route, and our day ended with an empowering Hunger Banquet at Mount Saint Mary's University. 

The students at the MSMU were wonderful and asked lots of thoughtful questions not only about Joe's run, but also about how they can personally make a difference in the fight against world hunger. In addition to our warm welcome, the students raised over $800 towards our cause (including purchasing their own Hunger 500 t-shits) and are continuing to collect funds while we're on the run. They sent Joe on his way with an MSMU running tee that he will no doubt wear with gratitude and pride. Thanks again MSMU for your enthusiasm and inspiration!

  1. go joe go!!! my biggest concern for you was coming from AL and running up here in the cold. looks like ya' got some good gear tho!
    (i moved from AL to WI just a year ago, and this is my first winter running... lots to learn... and it's a delicate balance between staying warm and not sweating too much)
    wishing you all the best!!!
