A once-in-history family endurance mission to raise $1M and grant 100 wishes for critically ill children through Make-A-Wish®. No human being has ever done this.
66 Children Are Still Waiting for Their Wish.
$339,268 raised so far. 33 wishes already funded. Now Brady is going after the rest with a feat no human has ever attempted.
Starting July 25, 2026 at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL, Brady McDonald will run a 50K every single day for 50 consecutive days across all 50 states, finishing September 12 in Honolulu, Hawaii. 1,553 total miles. No rest days.
One Wish Can Change Everything.
A wish is more than a moment, it's medicine. Research shows that granting a wish can give a child the strength to face a critical illness, renewing hope for the whole family. It transforms how kids experience their toughest days, and it brings entire communities together behind one child's dream.

From a Hospital Bed
to 1,553 Miles.
Three years ago, Brady was not a runner. He quit drinking, entered a 50-mile race, won it, and landed in the hospital with rhabdomyolysis days later.
He kept going. A 100-miler. The Moab 240. The Arizona Monster 300. More than $300,000 raised for Make-A-Wish.
Somewhere in those miles, the mission became clear: the legs he built were not meant to be about personal records. They could help children living through their hardest days.
"This isn't a personal record I'm chasing. It's 100 kids whose lives can change because we showed up."
