I am so excited to announce that I will be running the NYC Marathon for the Rising New York Road Runners, a charity designed to help kids of all ages and abilities build confidence, gain motivation, and develop healthy attitudes toward physical activity that last for life!
For as long as I can remember, I have participated in some sort of activity - soccer, basketball, flag football. You name it, I was probably doing it. I was fortunate enough to play travel soccer for 12+ years. Being a part of such an amazing community gave me the confidence and courage to take on life's obstacles. I not only learned how to work in a team environment and collaborate with others, I learned so much about myself.
It wasn't until my freshman year of college that I really got into running. I completed my first half marathon in April of 2023, and I have done two more since. Running has changed my life for the better. It has shifted my mindset, showing me that growth is a good thing. I have gained a lot of things from this sport, but confidence is the most important of them all. I have fallen in love with it and I want to spread my love to those around me.
I want to help give kids their own opportunity to become the strongest version of themselves and you can help me achieve this goal! ANY donation is greatly appreciated :) Let’s help the next generation of kids become confident and courageous!
