My Story…
My story began in Feb 2022 when I was dx with MS. Sitting in the hospital I desperately started to research everything that I could to help as I was aware of MS before and knew there was no cure
My new journey began with what I knew to help manage my migraines, exercise! Specifically running. Having ran half marathons before and still recovering from nerve pain on my right leg that started 5 months before I knew I had to do something big. Shortly after I started to look for races specific to MS to build motivation and found the Finish MS program with one of the races being The Pittsburgh Marathon
Marathon?!! I have always told my husband Steve who has ran several including Pittsburgh I would never do one. But extreme circumstances take extreme measures .. and in 2023 I completed my first one at 3 hours and 40 minutes and completed it again in 2024.
Supported by my husband, kids, and friends who also participated in the Finish MS races - I’m here to do it again but this time at my favorite distance- the Half Marathon!
Please help me continue to increase awareness and raise funds to help all impacted by MS!
With gratitude
