This year I’m taking on another athletic challenge, the 2026 Berlin Marathon, and I’m running with purpose. I grew up competing as a distance runner, racing at the Division I level for Syracuse University and the University of Wisconsin–Madison in the 5K and Steeplechase. After returning to long-distance racing and completing my first marathon last year, I’m excited to keep pushing my limits and that’s why I’m stepping up to run for a cause that truly matters. I’m proud to support The Allyson Whitney Foundation, which provides hope, financial assistance, and emotional support to young adults battling cancer. No one should have to choose between life-saving treatment and everyday survival needs. No one should face cancer alone. Your donation helps give young adults the dignity, stability, and strength they deserve during the toughest fight of their lives. Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to the finish line of support and survival. Thank you for helping make my miles meaningful!!!
