Hello!

If you're reading this you've decided to support my running in the National Marathon in Washington D.C. on March 21st by giving to a wonderful local organization: Bridge of Hope of Lancaster and Chester Counties. Thank you so much for your support! Without your encouragement this challenging race would be so much more difficult. And without Bridge of Hope and its dedicated mentoring teams, many mothers and their children would be homeless without hope of supporting themselves and their children.
My goal is to raise $5,000 from now until March 29th. Every dollar raised will go directly to Bridge of Hope of Lancaster and Chester Counties and I encourage you to visit their website to learn more about this great organization: www.bridgeofhopelcc.org and view their "Donation" tab to learn how to donate. This amount is a step of faith, just as I require faith to keep running each day.
I will regularly post on this site and let you know how my training is going and how close we are to our goal. This week I ran 23.7 miles in the coldest weather I have ever ran in! Knowing that I am running for so much more than myself definitely is keeping me going. Again, thank you for support! You are making a difference in many lives!
