My Story…
My father was diagnosed with MS in 1996, but before his diagnosis, I remember him running around our house on Saturday mornings in the most tattered grey sweatshirt. By 2000, he was mostly in a wheelchair and just a few years later, he needed a full time caretaker.
The first half marathon I did was back in 2012 and it was such a great experience I signed up for the full in 2013. My dad passed away that year, and since then, my running has fallen by the wayside. It's hard to believe it's been 10 years, but I'm jumping back on the bandwagon and running the half to raise awareness, funds, and mostly because I can! This year is for Dad!
