Why I am Racing for the Ocean
I am racing on behalf of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution out of a deep appreciation for the ocean.
The ocean has brought me immense joy throughout my life, from exploring tidal pools as a child, to coaching sailing and racing in my young adulthood, to spearfishing, lobstering, cooking, and sharing briny oysters with friends here in Boston.
By raising funds for Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, we can be confident that our donation dollars are well spent and in trusted hands. WHOI is the world’s leading oceanographic research organization, and I’m honored to be part of their Falmouth Road Race team.
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!
