My Story…
Hi everyone! I'm back once again raising funds for the Light of Life Rescue Mission. In addition to training and raising much needed funds for the amazing work Light of Life does, I'm also using this race and training season to get ready to walk a leg of the Camino de Santiago in Spain at the end of May.
I hope you will join me in supporting Light of Life however you can. Last year you all came through big time and we raised over $3,000. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Your support and encouragement means more than you know.
To learn more about the services Light of Life provides to the Pittsburgh community, see the description below. Thank you again for your support!
