The Tokyo Marathon for Ronald McDonald House-JAPAN

Taking you back to 2019 --- these are the people who year after year after year inspire me! In 2019 - I was all set to run the NYC Marathon for Fred's Team, had already done a 20-mile training run, and then hurt myself on a 2 mile run one morning. I deferred my 2019 NYC Marathon entry to 2020 BUT this was cancelled for the pandemic. So 2024 was technically my deferred 2019 NYC Marathon. Now run and done! Drum roll please - that was my training run for THE TOKYO MARATHON on March 2, 2025. I'm running Tokyo for a cause that is dear to my heart after all these years at Memorial - RONALD McDONALD HOUSE. So many of my patients had cancer as children and as adults deal daily with the long-term effects of cancer and cancer treatments. Ronald McDonald House supports children and their families with compassion during one of life's most daunting challenges, a challenge far more daunting than running 26.2 miles, caring for a child with cancer! PLEASE help me support this wonderful cause!
