Why I am Racing for the Ocean
This year, I am running the Falmouth Road Race with Team WHOI in an effort to raise money for oceanographic research. As a former lifeguard and swim instructor for the Falmouth Public Beaches, the health of our oceans and marine life have been a concern of mine throughout my youth and beyond. I am thrilled to be raising money for an organization that supports ocean research, technology and education. Thank you so much for your contribution!
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!
