We are raising awareness for LOVE by fundraising for authentic and empowering charities. We are emphasizing the fact that we are all HUMANS and underneath our skin, we are all the same.
Join Nick Lawson as he runs solo from the Southernmost tip to the northernmost tip of Africa, journeying up the East coast and through 23 countries. He will make the journey the whole way alone, but he will never be alone because the whole world will be joining him in some way. Humans from every country on this planet will join him.

We CAN do this.

Let's love each other more.

theabortionatorThe worst shame. Somebody bet me i wouldn't chug a bittle of wine a few years back. Then didn't pay up cause he didn't think I'd do it. Such bullshit. Don't make a bet if you won't pay up. The world is a shitty enough place without that fuckery. Pay up motherfuckers


How super drunk were you after doing that lol?

Well I woke up to the murder scene that was throwing up red wine into a white comforter in my sleep. I was stoked that I didn't suffocate, or get my throat slit, but it was a rough morning. I was going to do laundry but that shit was too far gone. When i was able to be human again I threw that shit in a dumpster and stole a freshie.

Don't chug bottles of wine

Worth noting that bringing 12 artist on a 180 road trip is funding for $5k. Nick wanted 500k for running without public transport for 365 days 1 person.

Also one of my friends buddies has been doing a thing for the last 5 years traveling to every country in the world woth no flights. I think he's living on 20 bucks a dsy including visas and transport.

Nick wanted 500k to run marsthons in the nale of world peace, set no goals for what that meant, didnt even run 1 fucking marathon.

What a peace of shit. People like him are the scum of the earth I'd rather people just steal straight up. Your normal thief that just steals because theyre scummy. No illusions of saving the world.

Nick is a bad as anyone scamming old ladies out of their pensions or any pyramid scheme etc.

this really bugs me





As my time on this journey is coming to an end there is so much going on inside me that I will try my best to explain with words here. I arrived in Africa on December 26th, 2017. My "plan" was to spend some time in Kenya and then go to South Africa and on February 13, 2018, start running a marathon a day, barefoot, through 23 countries in Africa, to promote love and unity and inspire people to love themselves and each other and get involved in creating positive change in our world. I was trying to organise a person from every country in the world to join me. They would come and run, cycle or walk and raise money for a charity of their choice. I was trying to raise money to have a 2 person support team and a media team. I was trying to get artists, musicians and theater performers etc to all come join and they could stop off in different places and share their talents with the local communities and do performances and workshops etc. I was trying to invite celebrities from all over the world to join so all of us together could show the world that we are one human race and our shared humanity and love is what binds us together and keeps us moving forward as a collective family. Even though the media is attempting to portray that we are doomed. This is what I was trying to organise. I had some beautiful beautiful friends and strangers helping me out and I cant thank them enough for all their support and love.
I ended up starting on Feb 14, 2018 with $300 and no support team, no media team, a couple of beautiful sponsors, a beautiful South African man for the first day and a beautiful Colombian/French woman for the first 2 days, and a heart and mind full of anticipation, fear, excitement, expectation, love and trust. The plan didnt go to plan. After day 2 I couldnt run my 2nd marathon as I injured my ankle and instantly had to deal with the "shame" and expectation I had put on myself. I thought I had to be Superman, Jesus and Buddha, all at the same time. Turns out I didnt need to be. I just needed to be me. It took me many many many months to stop beating myself up and judging myself for not running those marathons. If I had?

In fairness, it might have been one of those fundraisers where if the total goal isn't met in time, the fundraiser falls through. So maybe he did start without any funds.
Or maybe he's just lying through his teeth, again. Who knows.

Loved this comment: "Why do you need money for your vacation? When you run out of money, your vacation should be over. If people have money to donate, they should donate it to actual Africans, or African wildlife, not some tourists on vacation. Zero respect. You should be ashamed."

iFlipThanks for posting. I will be interested to follow his progress.

The above said, I watched his entire BS video. Even he did not know what his "cause" is. As I interpret it, he's a bum and is looking for a grand amount of attention and sees this as his opportunity. By saying the "in" bs statements, he's created a platform for himself.

I also do not believe he has a chance in hell of doing what he says he will. Sure, he will "accomplish" some "version" of this. Then he'll make a statement/video about how running was never the purpose, love yourself, yada yada yada. The same bs as everyone who starts something big and fails epically.

So, let's get some bets going on how many days he actually manages to run/walk a marathon before his first failure. I give him 17 days. It's certainly possible to run a marathon a day for a year (and it has been done before) but I do not see him doing it. 17 days.


Right on the fucking nose with this take, except he didn’t even make it a day

Yeah fuck that guy.

Tries to get 250k for nothing but "love" to help africa with no real goals. Is gonna run a marathon a day barefoot, which was fucking stupid. Just running one a day is hard enough.

Doesn't run one fucking marathon and then makes his vacation some pseudo peace mission while abusing the kindness of people along the way. That dude deserves a serious bitch slap from the cruelness of this world. Fuck nick

spot on

you know a persons "word" is a really big deal to me, and i do not think he is a man of his word

he gave up before he even started, and he made the whole trip about "himself" and "his journey"

imo it was nothing more than a bunch of self serving bullshit to feed his ego

Actually might go back to Africa to work this summer. Haven't talked $$$ with the place but just in case if anyone wants to donated 100k to me I promise I'll to the refrigerator barefoot any time I grab a beer in the name of LOVE.

Actually I never had a fridge there, and we put out drinks on the windowsill but still. Actually, give me $150k and I'll buy a fridge too.

the extra 50k means I can post even more pseudo hippy memes about changing the world while I vacation.

I have some friends that want to come along so maybe let's make it $250k to make it easy. We'll spread love everywhere and save the world, one social media post at a time.
