An update from Ben

I have made a difficult decision to postpone my 250-mile run to next year. After lots of long discussions with my race team, we have concluded that we need to delay the run attempt. It is a hard pill to swallow with all of the preparation put in, but after I reinjured my hip, we are deciding the best choice is to hold.

Candidly...I'm pretty bummed right now.

The goal hasn't changed: raising funds to work with American Forests to plant 250,000 trees. What's changed is the timeline, and with it, the opportunity. Working to build the future of forestry is what I do every day at Cambium, and I hope that over the next year, we'll be able to bring more people into the effort and build towards the next race day.

Every tree already funded is still going in the ground.

Thanks so much for all the support from everyone already...I've been honored to be shown such love with this initiative.

We will be back.
