I'm running because I have been SO fortunate to own and operate my Clinical Massage, The Boston Bodyworker (https://www.bostonbodyworker.com) practice in Copley Square since 2001. This city and more specifically the Boston running community has supported us from the very beginning. I am proud to be a Bostonian and so impressed by how this city, this country and all the way across the pond to the small city of Totnes, England has responded to these attacks. It is truly an honor to be part of something as great as this. So many of us showed the world what evil does to a community; it makes us STRONGER, not weak or afraid. I hope you will sponsor myself, my new family and the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings and help us to raise our goal of $1M. I hope that you can sponsor me in the amount of $26.30 (we are 26.3, just 1/10 of a mile from the finish line in Boston). However, you CAN make a difference with just $1, really. We love all the support and thank everyone who recognizes the life long struggles these victims face. All donations will go directly to the One Fund Boston.
