DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) - Two Ohio men are running 80 miles to raise awareness and money for organ donation.
Matthew Gerrod and Tom Mays are running from Cincinnati Children's Hospital to Dayton Children's in honor of 2-year old Jonah Mays.
Tom Mays' nephew was diagnosed with liver disease as an infant. He received a lifesaving transplant after several long months of waiting for a donor.
The runners figure it will take about 18 hours to make it from Cincinnati to Dayton. They started their trek Saturday morning at 4:00 a.m.
The pair have been training for months to complete the 86-mile trek.
