Once, I almost became a father. There were complications—he even had a name. Losing him felt like the end of our world.

Running became my way of putting the pieces back together. One step at a time.

Now, I run for something bigger than myself—for the women and families everywhere who deserve access to life-saving care and support.

That’s why I’m raising $1,000 for Jhpiego, a global health organization dedicated to mothers and families around the world.

I’d be grateful for your support. Help me reach the starting line in Eugene and contribute to a cause that truly saves lives.

“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having been found worthy, he and she will receive the crown of life.”

— Epistle of James 1:12
