My Story…
The Akron Marathon's inaugural race in 2003 was my first marathon. The marathon on 9/24/2022 will be my 20th running of the Akron Marathon and my 120th marathon.
To say the Akron Marathon changed my life is an understatement. It has made my life better and I want to see others benefit from the inspiration of a challenge and focusing on their wellness. The annual event celebrates the community and encourages health and wellness. Help me support the sustainability of my favorite charity, the Akron Marathon Charitable Corporation.
My goal to raise $5,240 is 262 (miles of the marathon) x 20 (years of running). You can get creative with you donation: $262, $120 for my 120th marathon, or even $20 for the 20th running of the event. Appreciate all amounts to celebrate the Akron Marathon's 20 years and support for the Akron Marathon Charitable Corporation to continue to benefit our community.
Thank You, Melissa
