We have spent countless holidays and vacations together, and while we know how to have fun, we also love lacing up our shoes and going for a run, even on vacation mornings after long days.

Every mile I run is for Emma—and for families like hers who face these challenges with love, hope, and strength.

My goal in this project goes beyond just fundraising. I want to help build a better future for our society.

No matter how chaotic our lives get, Mike can always find the time to maintain his dedication, even when most would give up.

I chose Special Children’s Charities because their mission—to enhance the quality of life for children and adults with developmental disabilities—mirrors what running gives me: strength, confidence, and connection

I know firsthand the challenges, heartbreaks, small victories, and strength it takes to navigate this journey — not just for the children, but for their families as well.
