A dream coming true!
As a mother of 4 beautiful children Ilse 6.5, Iris 4.5, and my twins August and Zoe almost 2, running has been a way for me to survive. Getting out running in the morning before the family wakes up has been a way for me to find strength and some alone time. Especially during the pandemic which was a very intense time with 4 young children, homeschooling, and living in a small apartment in NYC. Running is THE way for me to stay physically healthy but even more important mentally sane. If you set your mind to it you can accomplish anything!
Running a marathon has always been a dream of mine, and living in New York City another. Combining them as a resident and running my first Marathon and the world's largest Marathon in November 2022 is a dream coming true.
I’m also running for an important cause! I’m running to support Think Pink Rocks whose mission is to raise awareness about the early detection of genetic testing for breast cancer and to provide screening, treatment, and research.
Running is my life and I can’t think of anything better to combine my mileage and training towards fundraising for this charity. I would be very grateful for any support for my fundraising efforts for the 2022 New York City Marathon.
Thank you!
