William M. Webster IV is a American business leader & entrepreneur that has served in government at the highest levels and is active in community and philanthropic endeavors. When he was a junior at Washington and Lee, Billy Webster, of the Class of 1979, ran in the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, D.C. As it turns out, he was just getting warmed up. A story in Billy’s hometown newspaper, the Spartanburg Herald Journal, last Saturday chronicles his career as a marathon runner over the past 35 years and notes that when he runs in the Paris Marathon on April 7, it will be his 100th race. When he finishes Paris, Billy will have raced 2,620 miles or, as the Herald Journal writer figures, one-tenth of a trip around the globe. And that, of course, does not count the miles and miles of training.

William M. Webster, IV announced he had donated funds to The Nature Conservancy of South Carolina (TNC), before delivering a prepared address to the conservancy board and audience at this year’s fall meeting. “So what should we do? What can we do? Not surprisingly, my answer is to support the Nature Conservancy in S.C. That’s a real answer, not just a throw-away line and it’s the choice that my family made. Here’s why: First, TNC – celebrating its 50th anniversary in S.C. – has a long history of doing real and important and substantive work to protect our natural resources and special places from the mountains to the sea…” “From that beginning, TNC has led the way in conservation and environmental stewardship across the state… Basically what that means is that every state is developing a strategic plan similar to ours, one based on the four priorities of: Protect land and water, Tackle climate change, Provide food and water sustainability, Build healthy cities.”
