Why I am Racing for the Ocean
Thank you so much for supporting this event, WHOI, and me! This will be my first ever road race and I'm beyond excited to be running for a cause that is very important to me. As a lifelong lover of the ocean and all her creatures, I couldn't think of a better team to be a part of. Although I don't work at WHOI, I do work right down the street for NOAA - at the Woods Hole Science Aquarium. I spend all day working closely with marine animals of all kinds and educating the public about them and their importance to the ecosystem. I love my job as well as being a part of the greater Woods Hole scientific community, and your contribution will help to keep that passion going by allowing future research to happen.
Description
Our Ocean. Our Planet. Our Future.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) is a world-class community of researchers, engineers, technologists and students working together to find solutions to critical environmental challenges facing humanity and our ocean planet.
Our team of runners are also working together to support ocean research at WHOI. As we all join together to RACE FOR THE OCEAN, you help WHOI place big bets on science to accelerate the search for solutions to climate change, keep ocean habitats healthy and marine life thriving, and explore new possibilities for human lives and livelihoods.
By supporting me, you are also supporting solutions-based science by giving WHOI scientists and engineers the flexibility they need to identify and pursue critical research priorities in a changing ocean. Together, we can create an ocean of possibilities!
