I've committed to raise money to support the Challenged Athletes Foundation by registering as a Charity Bib for this event.

As a physical therapist, I have the privilege of helping people return to the activities that make them feel most like themselves. I’ve seen firsthand how powerful sports and movement can be in rebuilding not only physical strength, but also identity, motivation, and joy.

That is why the mission of CAF resonates with me so deeply. CAF empowers athletes with physical disabilities by breaking down barriers and providing funding for adaptive sports equipment, training, and community support so athletes can continue doing what they love and thrive through fitness and competition. Every athlete deserves the opportunity to pursue their goals, challenge themselves, and experience the community and confidence that sports can provide.

Running this half marathon is about more than crossing a finish line for me — it’s about supporting opportunities for others to reach theirs. Through this fundraiser, I hope to help provide adaptive athletes with the resources and support needed to keep competing, moving, and achieving incredible things.

I have until June 14, 2026, to reach my goal, and every donation makes a meaningful difference. Thank you for supporting both my journey to the starting line and CAF’s mission to empower athletes of all abilities.
