Dear Family, Friends and all Stepping Strong Supporters,

I had a fantastic experience running with the Stepping Strong Boston Marathon 2024 team, and I’m looking forward to another inspiring year running in 2025!

This will be my 7th consecutive Boston Marathon, and 24th marathon overall. And 6 days after the 2025 Boston Marathon I'll be running the London Marathon for my Abbot World Major's Six Star medal!

I'm asking for your help to meet my campaign goal of raising $10,500 for the The Gillian Reny Stepping Strong Center for Trauma Innovation. Tax-deductable gifts supporting Stepping Strong runners are the fastest way to support the work of the Center. Matching Grants from your employer will double your impact! As a runner, I am honored to join the history of over 1,200 runners participating in the Stepping Strong running teams.

Please click on "GIVE NOW" and make a generous donation as we give back and encourage the Stepping Strong runners toward Boston 2025. You may make your gift personal in honor or memory of a friend or loved one, and I encourage you to share your story of why making this donation is important to you in the section "Additional comments about my gift."
