My Story…
I have always been different. Even when I wasn't visually impaired, I was different. Losing my vision has given me some of the greatest struggles of my life, mentally, emotionally, and physically. That's why I started running almost 10 years ago.
When I run, I feel the same. I feel like every other runner on the path. I don't feel like I stand out because I can't see or do something. I just feel the same. That's why I run.
Please help me reach my fundraising goal so we can move vision research forward. I have hope for the future of my sight, and the sight of everyone coming after me.
