Training for this marathon has been an incredible journey so far! I am especially grateful to be doing it alongside the You Gotta Believe! organization. Their unwavering dedication to finding permanent families for older youth in foster care has inspired me every step of the way. Being part of this team means more than just crossing the finish line—it means raising awareness and support for a cause that truly changes lives. I’m honored to run with a purpose, fueled by the mission of You Gotta Believe!, and thankful for the opportunity to contribute to their impactful work.
