Why I am Racing for the Ocean
I've been fortunate to spend much of my life near the ocean, and I know how important healthy oceans are to our communities, our climate, and our future.
I'm proud to be running in support of WHOI this year! Its scientists are expanding our understanding of the ocean and tackling some of the world's most important environmental challenges. Supporting ocean science is a meaningful way for me to give back while combining my passion for running with a cause that has a lasting impact.
Running has taught me resilience, gratitude, and the value of setting goals that make a difference. Participating in this race is about more than crossing the finish line—it's about supporting research that helps us better understand and protect our oceans.
I'm grateful for the encouragement of family, friends, and everyone who supports this effort, and I'm excited to run on behalf of a mission that benefits us all.

Description
Our Ocean. Our Planet. Our Future.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) is a world-class community of researchers, engineers, technologists and students working together to find solutions to critical environmental challenges facing humanity and our ocean planet.
We are working together to support ocean science at WHOI. As we join together to RACE FOR THE OCEAN, you help WHOI place big bets on science to accelerate the search for climate solutions, keep ocean habitats healthy and marine life thriving, and explore new possibilities for human lives and livelihoods.
By supporting me, you are also supporting solutions-based science by giving WHOI scientists and engineers the flexibility they need to identify and pursue critical research priorities in a changing ocean. Together, we can create an ocean of possibilities!
