My Story…
Welshy here! I’m raising money for a new charity this time around, running in the 2026 Twin Cities Half Marathon on October 4th, 2026 for YMCA of the North’s Adventure Team, a cohort of 17+ camps and adventure programs that offer outdoor experiences for all ages, 365 days per year. Y Adventure is fundraising specifically to increase our equity, inclusion and belonging effortsincluding but not limited to: scholarships, continued learning experiences for our staff, and more! Y Adventure is committed to creating inclusive, accessible spaces that acknowledge shared history and nurture diverse communities.
20 years ago was my first summer working for the Y and I have loved it ever since. Please help our team to continue to support and provide unforgettable experiences and lifelong relationships! With your help, we can continue to do the same for families and communities for years to come!
Any amount, big or small, will make a difference. Help me reach my initial $1000 fundraising goal and get to the starting line oof the Medtronic Twin Cities Half Marathon Weekend by donating today!
All proceeds will go directly to supporting our team’s equity, inclusion and belonging efforts.
If you are seeing this, you have been a supporter, valuable contributor and advocate for all the great things that come with being a charity runner, I hope I can count on your support on this next adventure!
Welshy
