I remember running in Memorial Park with my dad, seeing all his bib numbers on his wall from dozen of races, and going to Austin to see him run the Capital 10k. He taught me to love running.

After being diagnosed with ALS in Spring 2014, his days of running are now fond memories.

In October I'll be running the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, DC., my first marathon and something I would never be doing if not for my dad.

This is my thank you to him, to use my miles to help fund research and advocacy so daddies can keep running with their daughters.

If you are able to make a donation, it all goes directly to the ALS Association. If you can't make a donation, please pray for my dad and our family and for others on this path.

Thank you.
