Help Chelsea raise money

For participating in The 2022 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

In the winter of 2019, my dear friend Susie and her family lost their son, William, shortly after his 9th birthday in a tragic skiing accident. Time stood still. They held together, bonded by their grief and love, with the hopes that some beacon of light was on the horizon. William's Be Yourself Challenge is that bright light.

I run this race (my first!!), to be amongst those touched by this family's story, moved with compassion and commitment to make a difference for the better in the world, step-by-step, mile-by-mile. In this way, we turn crisis into opportunity to both heal and give back to the world; empathy, devotion and love.

The great Zen teacher, Katagiri Roshi once answered the question, "What do I do in times of great difficulty?" He responded by saying three things: do not be tossed away, continue under all circumstances, and make positive effort for the good. William's Be Yourself Challenge is that goodness.

'Be Yourself' was William's way of being alive in the world, and a way for all of us to honor his memory and live life authentically. In that way, William's goodness lives on.

Please join me in this celebration of William's life and all the love that has been poured into this organization by donating to WBYC and supporting my 7 mile run. With heartfelt thanks. Chelsea
