I am running the New York City Marathon to support the athletes of Special Olympics New York and help make sports more accessible to everyone. Having played sports my whole life, I’ve seen how powerful they can be, not just for physical health, but for building confidence, creating community, and bringing joy, which is what makes the mission of Special Olympics so meaningful to me. Running 26.2 miles is a huge personal challenge, but being able to raise money for a program that creates these opportunities for athletes makes every mile worth it. Thank you so much for your support!
