My Story (Background, Fundraising Links, Training Log...etc!)
In middle school, I was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. My ankles and feet were most severely impacted, and for a period of time I had to give up all sports.
Seven years later, I am a runner and have officially signed up for my first marathon. In October, I will be racing the Mohawk Hudson River Marathon. My goal is to break 3:05:00 and qualify for the Boston Marathon.
Posted in the header is a link to a brand new DailyMile.com account that I will be using to track each and every single run I do as a part of my training leading up to October.

The Arthritis Foundation and Shriners Hospital for Children in Springfield, Mass are the reasons I am able to live such an active life. Any donation you could make, in support of my marathon, will help others to receive the same care I did.
