Help Amy raise money

For participating in 2023 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

Three days before this race I will turn 47.  I've been running for 10 years, which is pretty amazing considering I was the kid who could barely walk the mile in gym class.  My much younger spouse plans to run the marathon the following day.  I will not be running the marathon, but depending on how this race goes, I may attempt the half marathon or marathon relay next year.
