Ukugijima Izinhlanga Zokusekela Umngane Nabanye
-Delile
Ungase ugxume indiza e-Chicago futhi ube seNew York cishe amahora angu-2 nemizuzu engu-15 kamuva. Noma ungajoyina i-relay egijimayo, futhi uhlose ukufika ezinsukwini ezingama-22 kamuva. Kanjalo neshejuli yeTimex ONE Relay, enabagijimi abayi-100 abahlanganisa amakhilomitha angama-800 (abasubathi bokugcina bazofika eNew York ngoLwesine, Okthoba 30). Akukhona nje ukuthi umsubathi ngamunye uzuza amalungelo okugabisa-kanye nethuba lokuzama iwashi elihlakaniphile le-Ironman One GPS+-kodwa futhi no-$100 ngemayela ngenhlangano ayithandayo.
Ngempela, uKaley Burns uzuze u- $ 1,000 ngemizuzu engama-74 (okungcono kakhulu) nge-Stand Up to Cancer njengendlela yokuhlonipha umngani ogijimayo owalahlekelwa ngumdlavuza we-ovarian ezinyangeni ezimbili ngaphambili. "Iqembu lethu lenze umsebenzi wethu ukuxhasa uhambo lwakhe aze akwazi ukugijima nathi futhi," kusho uBurns, umfundi waseChicago owenza ibanga futhi ophumelele. "Ngizoqhubeka nokuqwashisa abantu ngazi ukuthi ugijima noma amabhayisikili noma uyabhukuda-eceleni kwami."
Njengoba nje uKaley evuma uthando lomncintiswano wobungani, ukhathazeke kakhulu "ngokujabulela umcimbi nokukhuthaza abanye abasendleleni." Ngokudluliswa kwebanga elide, kunethuba eliningi lakho kokubili. Ngokungafani nomjaho ojwayelekile, lapho uzenzela khona wena kuwo, namaqembu adluliswayo abagijimi bahamba ndawonye, behlanganisa ingxenye egijimayo lapho lonke iqembu lishayela ibanga, lilindele izikhathi zabo. Lezi zinhlanga zingadala ukukhula okuningi komuntu siqu-uzoba inselele emzimbeni wakho, uqinise ingqondo yakho, futhi uthole abangane abasha! Ngemva kokuhamba ngezinyawo unqamula izifundazwe ezimbalwa, ngeke nje ujabulele ukwaneliseka okujabulisayo kanye namalungelo okuqhosha afiselekayo kusukela ekuweleni entanjeni, kodwa uzothuthukisa amabhondi aqine nakakhulu, udale izindaba ezijabulisayo ongazixoxa futhi wenze izinkumbulo ezinhle.
Lena akuyona imijaho yesikole samabanga aphansi oyikhumbulayo. Uma ufuna ukuletha umoya weqembu omncane ekusebenzeni kwakho, hlola amanye ama-relays weqembu elikude:
I-Road Les Traveled Relays
Izifundo zamabanga ahlukahlukene e-Oregon, Colorado, Vermont, Nebraska nase-Iowa
Ukudluliswa Kwamachibi Amakhulu
Cishe uhambo lwezinsuku ezintathu lwamamayela angu-300 ukunqamula eMichigan, ukusuka e-Upper Penninsula kuya eLake Michigan.
Ukudluliselwa kwe-Ragnar
Khetha emijahweni ehlukene eyi-14-eminye ubusuku obubodwa, ezinye izifundo ezibandakanya amaholide amaningi eCape Cod, ukusuka eMiami kuye eKey West, noma ngeNapa Valley.
