D’Amico has decided to combine his love of running and McDonalds by eating only McDonalds foods for 30 days in preparation for the Los Angeles Marathon; and all for a good cause.
D’Amico plans to donate $1 for every fan of his McRunner Facebook page, up to $2,500 (which currently has 2,380 fans), to the Ronald McDonald House.
In total, D’Amico has currently raise $3,355 of his $5,000 goal. You can follow him, his accomplishments, his meals, and the status his runs on his blog.
D’Amico’s goal through this challenge is not to make a statement or prove anyone wrong. He is simply combining the things he loves into one.
Currently, D’Amico has not noticed any changes or weight gain; however, he is running 100 miles a week.
“I’ve been eating McDonald’s since I was a kid. In a way, I’ve been practicing for this my whole life,” D’Amico said to the Chicago Sun-Times.
The LA Marathon will take place on March 20, starting at Dodger Stadium and ending the 26-mile trek in Santa Monica.
My Challenge to you: Become a Facebook fan of McRunner!
This is just ridiculous; where did you find this story?! This is super cool that he's combining two things he loves to do: eating and running and somehow still finding a way to stay fit while eating at McDonalds. I've never felt good about myself after eating something from McDonalds and the willpower that this man has must be amazing. Running 100 miles a week and eating at McDonalds...is he friends with Michael Phelps?
