This year, I’m lacing up my shoes and hitting the pavement for a cause that’s close to my heart—raising money for ALS research in memory of my dear friend, who lost her battle with ALS. I'm participating in Team Challenge ALS to raise funds and awareness to help fight back against this terrible disease. The ALS Association provides much needed services and resources, funds global, cutting edge research, and much more in order to help those living with ALS.
We were friends for more than 35 years, and in that time, she ran many road races including marathons and even towards the end made it a goal to hit her daily 10,000-step goal. Her love for running, walking and general fitness would inspire everyone around her with her boundless energy and determination.
Though she’s no longer with us, her spirit of strength, perseverance, and love continues to fuel my steps. As I run this Super Hero Road Race, I’ll be honoring her memory and supporting the fight against ALS, a disease that took so much, but couldn’t take her courage. As I run I will feel every step, celebrate every mile and Run for Becky.
Every donation will help fund vital research, provide resources for those living with ALS, and bring us closer to a cure. Please join me in celebrating her life and legacy—together, we can make a difference and move one step closer to ending ALS for good.
Team Challenge ALS is an exciting opportunity for us to work together to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the urgency of our cause and to push for treatments and a cure.
Thank you for your support
Michelle
