My Story…
My father suffered a massive stroke due to a genetic heart defect in 2005. He went through rehab at Spaulding and had the honor of meeting Tedy Bruschi during his course of therapy. He was so proud to have met Tedy and I know this gave him the strength he needed to make an almost full recovery. My father gave me the love of running and was always my biggest fan. My sister, niece and I are running this race on Tedy’s team to honor him. I’ve always been an avid runner thanks to my dad, but have never run a race in my home state of MA. I’m looking forward to this opportunity greatly and I know daddy will be looking down on us with a big smile on his face on race day.
Any donation you can spare will make a difference for stroke patients like my father.
