My name is Dawes Eddy and I will be 66 next year.  Thanks to diet, exercise and good genes, I feel fit enough to accept the challenge of climbing the biggest hill, 29,035 ft. Mt. Everest in Nepal starting next March 22, 2009.  If successful, it will make me the oldest U.S. citizen to have reached the summit.

Since my early 30’s, good nutrition and physical conditioning have allowed me to engage in marathons, ultra marathons, triathlons and mountaineering.  Part of my motivation for doing this climb is to be an example of the benefits of proper diet and exercise to people of all ages and especially the youth of America.

If you, your company or organization would benefit from the publicity associated with my endeavor, I am looking for sponsors and donations to help pay for the approximate $50,000 cost of the climb.  Any money raised in excess of my costs will be donated to non-profit organizations that promote youth fitness.
