It’s hard to believe three years have passed since I ran my first 10K and half marathon. I was 39 at the time with a goal to end my 30s on a healthy note while supporting two important causes that were dear to my heart. In the three years that have passed, I often think of my grandfather saying that ‘health is wealth’. Those words continue to stay with me in a profound way, as we have experienced loved ones pass, and witness friends and family experience the same. In the spirit of health, hope and gratitude I will be running a 10K on Aug 24 and a Half Marathon on Oct 20 in support of the same causes - pediatric cancer and dementia. I would be very grateful for your support if one of these causes is close to your heart as well.
I’ve provided the links to my donation pages below and included a few pictures from my previous 10K and half marathon experiences. My love bug and dolly are my inspiration to do this again.
Thank you!
Love,
Steph
