On March 15, I'll be running my 19th Half Marathon in the 2026 United Airlines NYC Half as a SoleMate for Girls on the Run (GOTR). GOTR is an organization whose mission resonates with me. Girls on the Run gives young girls the space to understand who they are, build confidence in their strengths, form healthy relationships, and recognize their power to shape the world around them.
Back in 2005, I started a GOTR program at my Chicago elementary school with one of my co-workers. I love how this program gives girls the chance to learn more about being healthy and balanced in physical, emotional, and relational ways. I am excited to be participating with this awesome organization in a different role to help raise money so more girls can participate in this amazing program.
Will you join me in making an impact by contributing to Girls on the Run today? Since this will be my 19th half marathon, let's get to the goal of $1900 together!
