This October, I will be running as a Children’s Champion with Team Impossible for the Nationwide Children’s Half Marathon in Columbus. Team Impossible represents Impossible Performance (impossibleperformance.com), an organization started by my best friend Matt Hill. Matt battled rare pediatric cancer which caused him to lose his leg and almost his life. Now, he performs amazing feats in powerlifting and endurance races (including racing in this marathon!) while using his personal story to connect with others on how they can overcome impossible situations with the power of the mind. He is an inspiration and a huge reason I push myself everyday.
The Nationwide Children's Hospital Columbus Marathon & 1/2 Marathon goal is to raise funds to support life-saving research and care for all children, regardless of their family's ability to pay. I am running this race to support Matt, Team Impossible, and the many children who receive treatment and care at Nationwide Children's Hospital. Would you join me in supporting kids who are battling all types of illnesses and helping them to receive the care that they need?
