Starting in Revelstoke on Saturday (Aug. 5), Sachin Latti will begin the arduous journey across the province to Victoria, running 22 consecutive marathons along the way.

害羞草研究所淚 think the most difficult part will be the mindset and making sure that my mind is able to continue going with the attrition,害羞草研究所� said Latti ahead of the run.

After a year害羞草研究所檚 worth of training his body and mind, Latti is eager to lace up his running shoes and hit the road on Saturday to begin his 害羞草研究所楻un to Remember害羞草研究所�. Arriving a few days before his departure, Latti ran around Revelstoke to stretch his legs ahead of his adventure and to acquaint himself with the town. He spoke about the run, his training, and why he decided to take on the biggest run of his life.

害羞草研究所淚害羞草研究所檝e never done anything like this before,害羞草研究所� said Latti, standing near Revelstoke害羞草研究所檚 welcome sign near the highway.

He continued running and began to look forward to the undertaking ahead of him, talking literally about the long road ahead.

Latti hasn害羞草研究所檛 done anything like this, nor have many people. Over the course of his 22 days, Latti will cover roughly 1,000 km and nearly 15,000 m of elevation, which is more than the height of Mount Everest.

While training, Latti has tried to remain realistic about what to predict of the experience. Stopping along the Columbia River on the east side of Revelstoke, he reflected on how he expects to feel.

害羞草研究所淪ome days might be good, some days might not be great,害羞草研究所� said Latti, as he stood looking out over the Big Eddy bridge.

To help himself prepare, Latti followed the advice of one of his mentors, Sean Taylor, who advised him to 害羞草研究所榖leed in practice, not in war害羞草研究所�. Latti has worked to test his limits in training, so that he害羞草研究所檚 not surprised by the challenges of the run when they arise.

To take on a test as big as Latti will, his 害羞草研究所榳hy害羞草研究所� had to be a bigger motivator than the many reasons not to do the run. For Latti, that reason was raising mental health awareness, and raising money for the Honour House Society, located on the coast.

Honour House Society operates the Honour House Ranch, which is defined on its website.

害羞草研究所淗onour House is a refuge, a 害羞草研究所榟ome away from home害羞草研究所� for members of our Canadian Armed Forces, Veterans, Emergency Services Personnel and their families to stay, completely free of charge, while they are receiving medical care and treatment in the Metro Vancouver area,害羞草研究所� reads the website害羞草研究所檚 description.

The organization also says on its website that it receives no direct funding, and that all of its operating costs are maintained by donations and fundraising.

Latti summed his other motivator for the run up with just two words.

害羞草研究所淭he team,害羞草研究所� he said.

He explained that the team he was referring to was the support from his friends and family, his followers online, and everyone else he害羞草研究所檚 met along the way.

Running along Third St. to the lookout near the Revelstoke Community Centre, Latti talked about his fondness for the community he害羞草研究所檚 run into and for the cause he represents. Arriving at the lookout, the smoke from a nearby wildfire filled the valley. Latti spoke about how the Honour House Society also helps wildfire fighters, many of whom may use the organization害羞草研究所檚 service after this year害羞草研究所檚 devastating wildfire season.

害羞草研究所淚 think of them quite frequently,害羞草研究所� said Latti.

Latti will think of the firefighters and other service members as he runs through more smoke-filled valleys from Revelstoke to Victoria.
