Story
I will be running the NYC Marathon on November 7th, 2021 to raise money in support of Special Olympics NYC.
Since I began volunteering with Special Olympics in 2012, I have seen first hand the impact they make on athletes through training, healthy competition, and team building. As an athlete, I have a special place in my heart for this organization as they create a space for individuals with intellectual disabilities to enjoy what I do every day.
I hope that with our donations, that after this difficult year of social isolation, they will be able to organize bigger and more frequent events for Special Olympic athletes to participate in.
I am honored to run 26.2 miles to support Special Olympics's mission of empowering athletes. I am grateful for your support in my first marathon and any contribution will make an impact!
Thanks!
