Ronald McDonald House Charities x RunDisney

Hi, I'm Kate Mathis, and I am excited to announce that I will be partnering with Ronald McDonald House Charities. Together we will be raising money through RunDisney's relaunch of the Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend! Please join me in this opportunity to participate and raise funds for an amazing cause. Every dollar donated on this site goes towards RMHC, which has long provided families with much-needed support.

In 2017, I started my running obsession with RunDisney. The Marvel Half Marathon at Disneyland was also the last RunDisney event at my favorite of all time, Disneyland Anaheim, CA. Since then, I have participated in Prepandemic Disney World's Marathon weekend (Jan. 2020), four virtual races (2020-2021), and the Dopey Challenge in Florida (2023). Now I am combining my RunDisney with Ronald McDonald House Charities.

After I was fortunate to have healthy twins, I made the decision to leave my career in banking to be a stay-at-home mom. When my girls were two years old, I began my writing career. I would go to my local Mcdonald's on Saturdays and spend a few hours writing my first novel, Living Lies. McDonald's was not only convenient but was a welcoming and safe environment and escape in pursuit of my writing career. Twenty years later, I am still writing at my local McDonald's.
