On March 15, I’m running my FIRST. EVER. half marathon: the 2026 United Airlines NYC Half as a SoleMate on behalf of Girls on the Run NYC! Last year, I spent race weekend immersed in the GOTR community—attending the pre-race brunch, making signs, and cheering on race day. The strength, joy, and community I felt from GOTR made me want to be part of something bigger than myself. This year, I'm honored to move from supporter to participant.
Girls on the Run helps girls gain confidence, build resilience, and discover what makes them strong—on the run and in life. As someone who works in the nonprofit sector and is passionate about projects that center girlhood and empowerment, supporting this mission feels both personal and important.
Running this half marathon is an opportunity for me to challenge myself while helping GOTR reach more girls across NYC. Thank you for supporting me, and this cause, with your gift!
To the finish line!! <3
