I’m officially running the 2026 Chicago Marathon with Team for Kids, and this one’s personal. 💚 I’m doing it in honor of my mom — a retired P.E. teacher who taught me everything I know about discipline, resilience, and the joy of moving your body. She showed me that sports can shape character and open doors, and I want to pass that same gift on to kids who might not have the same opportunities. Team for Kids raises funds for programs that help children and communities build healthy habits through running — teaching them strength, confidence, and teamwork one stride at a time. If you can, please consider donating to support this mission. Every mile, every dollar, helps build healthier kids and stronger communities. 🏃‍♀️✨ Our finish line? Active kids and brighter futures.
