Thomas is using fitness as a platform to give back to the veteran community. He is trying to raise $25,000 for ValorFit, a nonprofit that works with gyms and fitness centers across the country to provide veterans with free access to working out
Thursday afternoon, Thomas reported he had already reached 30 miles of his 235-mile goal
