My Story
I've always been passionate about giving back and supporting meaningful causes. This year, I decided to step outside my comfort zone and become the one crossing the finish line.
A huge part of that inspiration came from two amazing friends, Melissa Hendry and Amanda Nisula, who completed the Boston Marathon in 2026. Watching their dedication and determination showed me that maybe I was capable of more than I ever imagined. Since then, I've been saying "yes" to challenges I never thought were in my wheelhouse.
When I was selected by lottery to run the 2026 Falmouth Road Race, I was beyond excited and nervous if I'm being honest! I also signed up for my first half marathon this October. But as someone who has always been passionate about fundraising, it didn't feel right to run without supporting a cause that truly means something to me.
I've followed Vanessa Marcotte's story for years, and as a woman and a mother, her story has always stayed with me. The Vanessa Marcotte Foundation is dedicated to empowering women, promoting personal safety, and creating positive change in Vanessa's memory. It's a mission I deeply believe in and one I'm honored to support.
As I lace up my sneakers for this new journey, I'm asking for your support. Every donation, no matter the amount, helps further the Foundation's important work while encouraging me every step of the way.
Thank you for believing in me, supporting this incredible cause, and being part of this journey. I can't wait to cross that finish line knowing we made a difference together.
LOVE, Erica XoXo
