2021 Hom 100

 


Who can't wait for 2020 to be over? Well, we're approaching another year and another opportunity to remember Tony. The details of the event are still being worked out but it will largely be virtual this year due to well, do I really have to say it?!

The great news is that there will be definitely be swag.

You can run short.

You can run long.

Either way, you get goodies and we'll be raising money for the ALS Association Arizona Chapter.

Details to come...

Squad Goals

This year's Hom 100 is going to be a bit different. Being injured means I'll have to rely on my crew to help me bank the normal 62 miles. Everyone is encouraged to put together a team - friends, family or coworkers will work just fine. Team up and put in some miles. What ever each person does gets added up so that your cumulative total is compared to every other team participating.

For example:

Team member 1 does 20 miles
Team member 2 does 3 miles
Team member 3 does 12 miles
----------------------------------------
Team total = 35 miles


So rally your squad and get ready to put in some miles. Remember, we don't care if you're running, walking, riding or crab-crawling so long as you're not on a motorized or electric vehicle (e.g., must be human-powered).

Comment below if you know who's on your squad. Don't forget a cool team name either!!

Prizes will be given out for:

  1. Most miles
  2. Fewest miles
  3. Best costumes
  4. Best team name
  5. Largest team

2019 Hom 100 - Save the date!

This year's Hom 100 will take place on February 2, 2019. You can run, bike, walk, skip, scooter or skate any miles you want as long as you're out with us supporting the ALS Association and the memory of my friend Tony.


We've raised over $10,000 in 2018 and I'm looking forward to raising more in the coming year. It will be our 7th year running crazy loops around the neighborhood.

2015 Ice Bucket Challenge

In 2014, the ice bucket challenge turned into THE most successful fundraising campaign of all time. It was viral, fun and massively important in the funding of research, patient care and outreach for the ALS Association.

Just like the Girl Scouts sell cookies each year, the ALS Association (along with other partners and companies with deep pockets) have committed to do the ice bucket challenge every August until there is a cure.

Here is the Davenport ice bucket challenge (and donation!) Enjoy!



Many thanks to my wife and kids for their help to bring this to life.
