This story began many years ago, when I signed up for an
Ironman triathlon in search of accomplishing what, in my mind, seemed impossible. Since that first race, my girls (Elizabeth,
Annie, and Molly) have been nothing but supportive, traveling and accommodating
family vacations in concert with endurance events.
Sadly, our story has forever been changed - but this doesn’t
end the story, it only takes a different path - and ours is one of unyielding
love, resilience, and the undying spirit of our beloved Molly. This journey is no longer just about crossing
finish lines; it's about celebrating a life that shone brilliantly and the
legacy that endures beyond it. Starting
with the Chicago Marathon on October 12th, I will embark on the Abbott World
Marathon Majors journey and will complete all 7 (Chicago, Boston, New York,
Berlin, London, Sydney, and Tokyo) - fueled by the laughter, courage, and the spirit
of our sweet Molly, whose presence will forever be the wind at my back, and her role model and older sister Annie, who will cheer loud enough for Molly to hear her.
Though Molly is no longer physically with us, her indomitable spirit and zest for life continue to inspire us every day. We are committed to keeping her legacy alive by sharing her story and supporting causes that mattered to her gigantic heart. Your generous donation will not only help contribute to initiatives that honor Molly's legacy, but also to causes that each of her 26 heavenly sisters were passionate about, via support of the Heaven's 27 Foundation. Every mile I run, and every dollar you give, pushes us beyond our grief, transforming loss into hope and creating a beacon of light for others who walk this path with us. Join us in this journey of endurance and love.
Together, let's let Molly and her sisters’ light shine a thousand times
brighter. Nothing these girls did was small, so make sure your donation follows suit 😊
