My Story…
I started running with the Akron Blue Line Beginners group 2 years ago, and since have run two half marathons, several 10ks, 8ks and 5ks. This year, I'm doing something differently - I'm going to use this fundraiser for Akron Children's Hospital determine what I'm going to run. I have (UPDATED) signed up this year to run the Akron Marathon Series - an 8k in June, the half marathon in August and the full marathon in September.
I think the world of Akron Children's, and am willing to put my body to the test if you, my friends and family, will pony up to help Children's with the amazing things they do for the kids in our community. Since I've made good progress toward my goal of $5,000, I have upgraded my running to a half marathon in August and the full marathon in September.
Yes, my wife thinks I'm crazy. But this isn't the craziest thing I've done to raise money for a great cause. So won't you help me in my quest? Thanks so much for your consideration and assistance!
Description
Thank you for visiting my Children's Champion page where I'm tracking my fundraising for the FirstEnergy Akron Marathon.
While Children's is ranked among the best children's hospitals in the country, it's their compassionate approach to treatment that makes them truly exceptional. Through a combination of revolutionary treatments and extraordinary patient experience, their care does more than heal. It brings the entire family together for the emotional support and understanding across multiple locations to reach families in the communities where they live.
Thank you for your support of Akron Children's mission and dedication to improving the health of the children in our community.
