I'm running because I love to run and I love to support terrific causes. Participating in One Run for Boston is a way for me to combine both passions. Running the first stage of 336 stages that will take a baton from Santa Monica to Boston is an experience that I feel so grateful, excited, and proud to be a part of. I will be running thinking of all the people affected by the Boston marathon bombings and everyone who has come together across the country to support them.
