Why I Run

In 2020, I made a New Year's resolution to run one mile every day for the entire year. Like many people do with their resolutions, I struggled to stick with it and almost gave up two weeks in. However, when COVID-19 hit in March, I decided to keep pushing forward instead of moving on to other resolutions. In the end, I successfully achieved my goal of running 366 miles (it was a leap year). Eager to improve myself further, adopt a healthier lifestyle, and continue challenging myself, I set my sights on running a half marathon. I developed a passion for running during this time. My grandfather, whom I admired greatly, was a dedicated runner. He once ran the Buffalo Marathon and even qualified for the New York City Marathon. While I may never achieve that level, I want to prove to myself that I can accomplish this goal. I run to show my daughters that they can achieve anything they set their minds to. Buffalo holds a special place in my heart, so I couldn't think of a better way to give back than to generate donations for the Kaleida Health Foundation in their fight against heart disease!
