Somehow I accidentally ended up with two ways to run a marathon this year. I was selected to run with Girls on the Run Hudson Valley… and the very next day I was selected to run the marathon through the lottery. This is my year!
Even though I now have my own race entry, I want to pay it forward and continue to fundraise!
Years ago, I was the kid who used to sit the mile in gym class. Now I’m voluntarily training for a marathon! Programs like Girls on the Run help young girls build confidence, strength, and belief in themselves—something I wish I had more of when I was that kid dreading the mile.
If you’re able to donate or share this page, I’d be incredibly grateful. Every contribution helps support these programs and makes every mile I run count!
