My Story…
Hello everyone!
My name is Omarf A. Ortega-Reyes, and I’m excited to share that I’ll be running my first-ever race, the 2026 Pittsburgh Half Marathon! This has been a milestone I’ve long hoped to achieve and have been working toward.
I chose to run in support of the Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation, the largest U.S. research institute devoted exclusively to women’s health and reproductive biology. Their work spans from cancer research, to high-risk pregnancy, to infectious diseases, infant health, and overall women's health. As someone who aspires to become a future health provider, supporting this research is personal and important for the care of current/future patients.
I’m honored to run in support of underrepresented minorities in research and the incredible women who fuel and inspire me everyday. My goal is to raise $2,000, and your contribution, big or small, makes an impact for the advancement of our health. Thank you for believing in this cause and for cheering me on as I take on this challenge.
¡Vamos pa’ encima!🏃♂️🇵🇷
Donate to help Omarf raise money for 2026 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend’s fundraising campaign.
