The Tamarack Ottawa Race Weekend on May 25 and 26 will be my first time ever running a half marathon. Best I've ever done before was 10k.

There will be a lot of sweat and tears in training and the actual race.

But, it's for a good cause! I'm supporting the Ottawa Humane Society, a charity I've loved working with for the past 5 years.

Last year, the OHS sheltered and cared for more than 6,000 animals in need, and this year they are expecting even more.

If you love animals and want to see me run my longest race ever, a donation helps with both!
