My Story…
I’m running the Pittsburgh Half Marathon in honor of my son, who has taught me more about strength, resilience, and joy than any finish line ever could. The Special Olympics has given him, and so many other athletes, a place to belong, to be celebrated, and to shine.
So yes, I’m voluntarily running 13.1 miles (questionable choices, I know), but it’s for an organization that has directly impacted my family in the best ways. Every dollar raised helps provide training, opportunities, and community for athletes with intellectual and physical disabilities.
If you’re able to give, thank you for supporting these incredible athletes, this mission, and a world where everyone gets the chance to cross their own finish line. 💙
Donate to help Emily raise money for 2026 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend’s fundraising campaign.
