I'm proud to say that this Half is in honor of my upcoming 40th birthday! Originally, I wanted to spend my 40th backpacking India, but then I realized I have kids and a family and ALSO because running a half feels WAYYY more MONUMENTAL! Running is such an important part of who I am. It makes me feel alive and free and what better way to celebrate a milestone than by also helping raise money for an INCREDIBLE organization! For my bday present, Evan is running a 10k! This is HUGE for him and a long time goal! So excited to have him with me in Cali!! Thank you for helping us reach our goal!
