My Story…
On May 4, I’ll be participating in the Pittsburgh Marathon (my very first half marathon!)—not just for myself, but for a cause close to my heart. I’m fundraising for Girls on the Run of UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital, an organization dedicated to building confidence, strength, and resilience in young girls through movement, education, and mentorship.
Growing up with only one parent raising 3 girls alone to this day, I see firsthand how hard it can be given those odds, and the challenges that come with navigating a life without another essential support system.
Running has always been my outlet. It still serves in any and every area of my life today, something that I could prove, to myself, that I could keep going - even when things feel hard, that I wouldn’t stop moving forward and I'm more capable than I think.
This program teaches young girls resilience, confidence, empathy, emotional intelligence, self belief and so much more through empowering workshops and running - helping them realize they are strong, capable, and worthy no matter what challenges they face.
I’m SO excited to run this race for them, and I’d love your support in making a difference!! 💛
