My Story…
Hi everyone!
This August I will be running my first Falmouth road race on the Tommy’s Place team. I am so excited to participate in this race with this team. As some of you may know my friend Priscilla lost her battle to brain cancer last June. As Priscilla was fighting her fight against brain cancer she was given a great opportunity to stay at Tommy’s place for a week with friends and family. I am also running to honor Karen Miller, a nurse who dedicated 40+ years to children in the town of Brookline. Given her many years of caring for children in public schools, the matched dedication to children at Tommy’s place seemed an appropriate cause to honor her. Tommy’s place is an amazing organization that gives families who have children fighting against cancer a week vacation on the Cape. Tommy’s place is a nonprofit organization to help every child they can experience a week of fun, family time, no doctor’s appointments and a time to just be a kid. Tommy’s place reminds these kiddos how to be a kid again! I’m running this race in memory of Priscilla. Her strength and a never give up attitude is what is going to get me through this race. No child should ever have to experience going through cancer. Raising money for Tommy’s Place is going to help children get a little break they deserve. I honestly can’t imagine running for a better cause! Anything you are able to give is appreciated!
Thank you Lauren G
