Badwater Double…AGAIN?
Back to Death Valley in 2007
Lisa will be joining many friends at the
start of the Badwater Ultramarathon on
Monday, July 23rd. She will finish the 135
mile road race, then climb from Mt Whitney’s
Portals to its peak, then reverse the route
to cover nearly 300 miles. Sound familiar?
Yep, Lisa did it last year and will be making
her second attempt later this month. Lisa will be
fundraising
for the MPD foundation (learn

the Religious Teachers Filippini. During the
race, there will be daily Blog updates.
