My Story…
Hello! Spring is in the air and a spring is in my step! Hoping to raise $$$ and run as a charity entrant in this year’s Cherry Blossom 10-miler. The designated charity is the Children’s Miracle Network, which benefits hospitals serving children in Canada and the United States.
As you may know, D.C.’s cherry blossoms are near and dear to my heart for lots of reasons, including this race, having run it first with my dear friend Amy, during the pandemic with my best dog Bonnie, and later with my little(!) brother Matt. This will be the 6th time, perhaps fitting having recently completed my 6th decade. Super happy to be joined again by my Matt, who is making his third Cherry Blossom appearance.
Even if a financial contribution isn’t in the cards—and I hope you feel no pressure to make one—sure would appreciate you cheering us on come race day, Sunday, April 12th.
With thanks and much love!

Description
I'm fundraising $500 for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals to run the Credit Union Cherry Blossom Run, and need your support!
Children's Miracle Network Hospitals raises funds for 170 children’s hospitals that support the health of 12 million kids each year across the U.S. and Canada. Donations go to local hospitals to fund critical life-saving treatments and healthcare services, along with innovative research, vital pediatric medical equipment, child life services that put kids’ and families’ minds at ease during difficult hospital stays and financial assistance for families who could not otherwise afford these health services. When we improve the health of all children and allow them the opportunity to reach their full potential, we also improve our communities for years to come.
Together, we can change kids’ health. Together, we can change the future.
