Meaning of "to charge to something"

Hey. Can someone explain me meaning of this sentence: "he is charging to the end zone"
  

Top answer

With no context, I can only guess. In American football, the end zone is the last ten yards at either end of the field. To charge to it is to run there with force.

'to charge' is mostly used of horses, but by extension it can be applied to a person who is running.

Ignorance charging to destruction. My sentence was about it. Proofreader replaced "leading" for "charging" and it really confused me.
