Outrunning ALS - Racing for Research!
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!
On Sunday, November 6, I'm proud to be running as part of Team ALS TDI for the upcoming TCS New York City Marathon. I will be running 26.2 miles on behalf of the The ALS Therapy Development Institute, an Official Charity Partner. Your donations fuel our continuous efforts to advance promising drugs and help END ALS. Please help me by making a donation. Thank You!
My husband was diagnosed with ALS in 2013 at the age of 39, one month before his 40th birthday. We lost him just three years later on October 12, 2016, not long after his 43rd birthday.
ALS changed the landscape of our lives. It will never be the same. Life changed course. I miss my husband. My daughter misses her dad. No one should ever have to be faced with this diagnosis, suffer with this disease.
I run in honor of his memory, but more importantly, I run with a purpose - to end ALS. I run for everyone living with ALS today. I run for treatment. I run for a cure. Please help us find it.
