Nikolas's Awesome Altras!

7/31/2014

Altra got Nikolas Toocheck through another marathon with great feeling feet! Despite the rainy, muddy conditions the entire run, his feet were happy. These are his clothes and shoes from his 6th marathon (Europe) of Running the World for Children - Nikolas's campaign to run a marathon on each continent to help children in need through Operation Warm. Thanks again Altra! Your shoes are the BEST!! Number 7 coming up to earn a world record of being the youngest person to complete a marathon on each continent! And Altra Running will be there with him every step of the way! Check out Nikolas's story and/or make a donation to support kids in need: www.nikrunstheworld.com

He did it!

He did it! This marathon was "the best yet!" Perhaps this was because it rained the entire time and Nikolas took few spills. He loved it all! Congratulations, Nikolas, for completing your sixth continent while Running the World for Children!!
