My Story…
6 years ago I registered for my first Running 4 Answers race in honor of my dad but by the following year, it was in his memory. To date, in 5 races we have raised $11,947.98! While I raise this money in memory of my dad, it's raised in the hopes that no one in my life will be in the position I was in.
My family's experience with Alzheimer's is similar to so many others- it involved every stage of anger, grief, confusion, and feeling completely overwhelmed. My father's journey with Alzheimer's forced my brother and me to implement all of my father's teachings, especially his biggest one, "do the right thing". Each year I am blessed to have friends and family that donate, run, walk, and carry out my father's legacy to "do the right thing" as we fight against Alzheimer's.
Every penny, dime, and dollar counts! For those who want to join on race day, come! Our team has walkers, new runners, experienced runners, runners who like walking breaks (hey there!), and there are usually a few great dogs at the finish line!
