My Story…

After 15 months off .. I'm back to my first (mini) distance race .. The Victoria half marathon in just 4 weeks. And while I  don't expect a PR this time around, I am hoping to have a great run! Just made it 12 miles this last weekend which gave me a confidence boost for the upcoming race. :) As many of you know, it's been quite a break from training for me the last year +  - navigating a tough health season, life changes, and more, and I'm SO excited to be back at it. It's been a beautiful reminder about the resilience of our mind and bodies, re-finding joy in running, and a new cause to support -- all things I  love. 


I'll be running for the Starfish Canada, an environmental charity led by my friend Kyle, who I  met during my UPenn/Oxford program in the UK last winter. Starfish is connecting a new generation to nature and to each other - building what it means to be a leader that thinks about people and the planet at the same time- something that means a lot to me, and something I  think we could use more of :) 
I'd love if you join me in supporting them, but of course no pressure! Your support, cheers, and joy are always the best.

Description

Running and the environment are deeply interconnected. Our natural spaces provide us with fresh air and the desire to adventure in the great outdoors. Co-founder of The Starfish Canada, Kyle Empringham, explained it well: "Environmental matters aren’t just about ethics — it’s about our health, too. They provide spaces for people to breathe deeply, to enjoy the trails with friends and family, and to soak in the benefits that nature can provide us."

Our team is excited to support The Starfish Canada. This charity actively supports youth voices in climate action and environmentalism for decades, and their success in amplifying young people as leaders in this space are profound. Since 2010, they've recognized and supported thousands of young people in seeing the world through an environmental lens, with those young folks taking those ideas and insights wherever their careers and life journies take them. 

We appreciate any support you can provide. You will be provided with a tax receipt for your contribution.
