Ready to Get Going

Thousands of miles
stronger than when he began.

When Pete reaches a goal, he sets an even bolder one. Having already completed a marathon in every state, he’s taking on a new challenge—100 miles in all 50 states. (What’s 3690 miles more anyway?) It’s a goal so bold, Pete could be the first-ever runner to complete it. He’s well on his way, but the path to the finish line is anything but insignificant.

About the Owl Research Institute

At a moment when the odds felt stacked against him on the Iditarod Trail, Pete had a memorable encounter with a snowy owl. Its peaceful presence gave him hope when he needed it most. 

Since then, Pete has become a passionate advocate for the work of organizations like the Owl Research Institute—a leader in owl conservation, education, and research. Every dollar he raises as part of his Owl Run Hundreds project will go directly to ORI to support its important mission.

Join supporters from across the country who have donated to the Owl Run Hundreds project.
