Hi there!
Welcome to my page! I'm Shayna, and I am running the New York City Marathon as part of Boston Children’s Hospital’s charity team Miles for Miracles. Running a marathon has been a personal goal of mine while recovering from foot surgery in 2022. When I first started running in 2022, I couldn’t run a mile. Now, 2 years later, I want to inspire others to overcome their obstacles by finally running a full marathon!
I had a life-changing care from Colorado Children’s Hospital when my hip injuries from ballet made it hurt to walk let alone dance or run. Ever since, I have been extremely passionate about helping other children receive the same life-changing care that they need. I now work and volunteer at Boston Children’s Hosptial and am so excited to also raise money for BCH’s mission! Every dollar I raise funds breakthrough research, family support services, and vital care not covered by insurance through the hospital's Every Child Fund. Your gift will:
give children battling the most complex diseases treatments they can’t find anywhere else;
help children in your town and 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 outpatient psychiatry clinics;
and so much more.
Please help me help the children and families at Boston Children’s and beyond and thank you for being a part of this journey
