When I ran the Chicago Marathon it was a bucket list item. It was my first marathon and it was going to be a one and done. Then my friend TJ suggested I apply to run the London marathon, with her, through a charity.  Knowing charities  have limits to how many participants they take and it’s difficult to get in, I decided, what the heck, I’ll apply. That’s when the craziest and most unexpected thing happened, The Outward Bound program accepted  me to run for their charity.  So I completed the registration and committed to run the London marathon on October 2, 2022. Now that I have wrapped my head around that I’m going to run another marathon, I’m thinking how cool it will be to run London at the age of 70.

This is an international charity. Your donations will help students here and abroad to be challenged, empowered and learn strategies in outdoor settings.
