As most of you know, my aunt Katherine ("auntie Kat" we call her) has been battling cancer for 13 years now. We have done several races in her honor, and here we are, back at it again! Thank you to Heather for organizing! Feel free to join in and run/walk with us (not sure how much running I will be doing, I will need to walk quite a bit, I'm sure!)
Here is Katherine's latest post with the link to register for the race, if you want! If you don't want to race, either in person or virtually, you can also donate to our team (Run for Her Life, password katherine) using this link:

Katherine's description:
Every year, the Charlottesville Women's Four Miler raises money for the UVA Breast Care Center, where I get treatment. This year, my friend Heather asked if she could start a team to run/walk it in my honor. I'd love to have you join us! You can do it here in C'ville with the group or virtually, if you live far away. Our team is called Run for Her Life and the verse I chose is Heb. 12:1 - "Let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us." This year has been one of persevering in the race set before me, one I definitely wouldn't have chosen for myself. But, like Heb. 12:2 encourages, I fix my eyes on Jesus, who, for the joy set before Him, endured the cross. He made the way so that I, too, can persevere in hardship knowing there is great joy ahead!
Sign up to run with us here. Just scroll down to the Run for Her Life team.
