My First 5k

About a year and a half ago, a little girl named Grace passed away from a rare pediatric brain cancer. She attended the boys' elementary school and was in first grade when she passed away. In her memory, her family has started a foundation to raise funds for cancer research. It is a tremendously worthy cause in memory of an amazing little girl.

That being said, I have decided to walk/run in their first ever 5k this Saturday. It is also my first 5k since I have become an adult. I did one 5k when I was about 13 years old and have never done another. So, at 8 am on Saturday, I will be walking.

To support my fundraising efforts in this race, go here:

There is also a link to Grace's website for more information on her story.

I have just registered for this event and it is only a few days away. I am hopeful that I can reach my donation goal. Thanks!
