My Story…

Together, we will FINISH MS!  I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2010, and running as a charity runner to help end this disease has been a passion of mine since 2020.  This is my 7th year running to support the National Multiple Sclerosis Society through the Pittsburgh Half Marathon.  I love helping others also living with MS.  It's been a journey worth sharing, and it's been immensely rewarding knowing that I am supporting those who also live with this disease.


This year, I am running 13.1 miles in the Pittsburgh Back Half Marathon on May 3, 2026.  Every mile and every dollar counts to end Multiple Sclerosis.


Many thanks for your support!  Finish 13.1 and Finish MS.  Donations will be received through May 31, 2026.  My personal goal is to raise $2000 for this year's race; to date, I have raised over $14,000 in the past 6 years.


"The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.  My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him." Psalm 28:7

Description

My goal — a world free of multiple sclerosis.

I’ve signed up for Finish MS to push myself physically and raise important funds for the National MS Society. 

Multiple sclerosis is a devastating disease that no one should face alone, and the Society is there so no one has to. This organization has paved the way for every effective MS treatment available today and is the best investment in reaching a cure for multiple sclerosis. 

I’m running full steam ahead with a commitment to end MS, and I hope I can count on your support as I prepare for this incredible experience. I’ve set an ambitious goal because I know that with your help I can get there!

Join me on this journey — donate today and help me reach my goal.
