Today marks the 2-year anniversary of Nikolas's first marathon and the beginning of his Running the World for Children campaign! Since then, his campaign has raised more than $40,000 for Operation Warm, changing the lives of over 2,000 children in need! Thank you for believing in a little boy wanting to make the world a better place!
Here is an extraordinary testimonial by Dean Karnazes about Nikolas. Dean takes one of two top spots on Nikolas's HERO list (the other spot is his dad's). When Nikolas read this, he couldn't stop smiling, he was so proud and humbled. Thank you so much, Dean!
Fun night at Chickie's & Pete's with 92.5 XTU Doc & Andie and the Eagles! Thanks so much for honoring Nikolas and his efforts to help kids in need!
Nikolas is the 92.5 XTU Student Athlete of the Week! He'll be joining Doc & Andie tonight on air live at Chickie & Pete's. Also joining them are Eagles players Jason Kelce and Todd Herremans. Nikolas can't wait to meet all of you and tell you about running for kids in need! Tune in at 8 pm!
Nikolas had the day off from school on Thursday. So, naturally, he ran a marathon! It was pouring rain. He ran through 20 stream crossings. The water levels were high with one up to his shoulders! This marathon was in Virginia; his second marathon in the US. Hmm... is this the beginning of a new venture? Thanks to Mike and Ike for having Nikolas on your show! He definitely wants to come visit! You guys are awesome! (audio interview)

Lots of journalists think this picture is Nikolas with his mom but it's the race director from Nikolas's 1st marathon. She made the marathon experience really special for Nikolas and has been a big supporter of his cause. She's awesome!
