I have chosen to ring in my 30th Birthday by not only running my first marathon but running to support Girls on the Run Minnesota! I have been involved in Girls on the Run of Central Iowa as a coach during my time at Orchard Place and a yearly donor to support their events. Their mission is close to my heart as I’ve seen girls gain confidence, a sense of belonging, and connection to their body while building community and (hopefully) developing a life long passion and joy for running. Money raised in these efforts will go towards inclusion initiatives like program scholarships as well as Project Gear Up to ensure girls have what they need for the program: new shoes, running pants, sport hijabs, etc. Please consider making a donation to Girls on the Run Minnesota as I celebrate my 30th with a full Marathon in Duluth, MN. Thank you!
