Time for London - and more importantly, time to help raise money for Boston Children's Hospital. I've had the privilege of serving as a member of the hospital's philanthropic board for over a decade and am constantly in awe of all the hospital does to care for children in the greater Boston area and around the world. I can't think of a better charity to run for in London and am so proud to be running for this great organization. Any funds raised will:
- give children battling the most complex diseases treatments they can’t find anywhere else;
- help children in your town and those across the world get a second chance;
- fuel 3,000+ researchers working to find cures;
- help patient-families in crisis with urgent needs, including housing, food and clothing;
- bring crucial care to families through not 1, but 4 outpatient psychiatry clinics; and so much more.
I also get the chance to run this marathon - the 5th of the 6 world marathons on my quest to earn an Abbott World Six Star marathon medal - with my dear friends, Laura and Jeremy. The humor and zest for life they bring to life and (most) runs is remarkable. So awesome to have friends like this to train with and adventure to London with.
Thank you for considering supporting my fundraising efforts.
Sincerely,
Beth
