My Story…

My mother Barbara was an amazing athlete and a Boston-qualifying marathoner who was taken from us far too soon, due to cancer. This year marks the 10th anniversary of her death, and I want to remember her in a suitable way by running my first full marathon in her honour. She will never be forgotten and this marathon is a tribute to her spirit, strength, and determination. Please consider donating any amount! It means the world to me to have your support. Thank you!
