The vision at iAMwalking.org is not just about one man walking. The hope behind this project is to inspire YOU to see that you can BE anything, creating whatever life you can imagine. What is easy in life is often the most difficult to overcome and what is difficult is often overcome with a single step. So get off the couch! Realize the difference you can make in this world. Realize the divine potential within you by acknowledging it in everyone and everything. Go beyond your expectations of yourself and get involved in something beyond measurement, beyond circumstances and reasons why not.
If you would like to participate by joining the walk, run, wheelchair, rollerskating, prostrating journey from Los Angeles to Brazil please contact iAMwalking.org. General travel plans include 20-25 miles of transcending distance, doubts, complaints, fears, per day. If you are walking, this roughly translates to 2.7 miles per hour over a 8,10,12 hour day. You can participate in sections, combine sections, and design your own itineraries. iAMwalking.org has been established to facilitate you BEING the difference in life, wherever, however you choose to participate!
