I'm running because One beautiful Monday morning over 23,000 runners laced up, fueled up, and hit the pavement while many had hopes of beating the 4/15 tax deadline this special group of people hoped to beat their own PR's and finish the Boston Marathon. This wasn't supposed to be a win or lose race, this was a race where everyone that crossed the starting line was a winner..... Nobody was supposed to lose yet somehow a few lost their lives, while others lost their ability to do what they love most.... RUN. This is why I choose to run #orfb2014 I want to support those whose lives were forever changed because they laced up for the love of running! I hope if it were me, you would do it for me. Please help me meet my goal and bless those that were impacted on 4/15/2013. I do it for those that did and no longer can....
