A MESSAGE FROM Nick’s Marathon Fundraising Page
Running is more than running. It's friendships and camaraderie. It's a ticket to better physical and mental health. It builds community and encourages volunteerism. The Chicago Area Runners Association (CARA) is on a mission to make sure everyone in the Chicagoland area has access to the benefits of running. Please consider making a gift to the Team CARA 'Go Run Campaign. Your investment will support CARA's 'Go Runs and Run Crews which aim to make running free and accessible for every neighborhood around Chicagoland.
The marathon is a bucket-list item for me, and I will be turning 40 just 9 days before the race. I figured there won't be a better time to run, so here we are! I decided to fundraise for CARA because I have seen countless volunteers working Chicagoland races, manning the water stations on the lakefront path, and hosting local, FREE 5ks - Go Runs - at various parks throughout the city. Since joining CARA I have met many incredibly dedicated people that advocate for the running community and provide outstanding resources for runners of all levels. I am privileged to be running the Chicago Marathon for CARA and appreciate any donation towards my goal! Thank you!
