My Story…
Double Marathon Mommy is my why! When I had Noah he called me mommy. When I gave birth to Liam he called me double mommy. When I ran my first marathon in 2023 he called me marathon mommy. Last year he said, “you should really run another marathon so I can call you double marathon mommy” so here I am! But really every training run I think of the list of reasons why I am a runner. Here’s some of them…
-to remind myself I can do hard things
-to be a role model to my kids
-to be reminded that even though I am half blind, have lupus, a brain tumor survivor, endo warrior + survivor of a lot of personal hardships I still show up for myself and family.
-running has been the best outlet for my mental health. Unfortunately cancer has rocked my closest friends and family and raising money for an organization so near and dear to my heart is the best way to give back.
I want to run not only for me + my immediate family but for a cure to save future families from going through what mine had endured.
Peace out! See you as double marathon mommy!
