#OceanRunnerNH: Are Mermaids for Real?

Posted on January 3, 2017

Ocean Runner Nichole is suiting up for the Dopey Challenge, held January 4-January 8, 2017 at Walt Disney World Resort, Florida! Running to promote ocean health, Nichole has a different marine-related outfit for each day at the race. Her Little Mermaid costume sparked a conversation about whether mermaids are fact or folklore. This video dispels the mystery.

Help Ocean Runner fund a new program, Healthy Ocean or Bust Bandits, a community action ocean conservation program, that will inspire children to design, organize and promote mini-campaigns to educate and motivate citizens to think blue (or green), by donating here.
