Hello Friends,

As many of you know, I have run for almost my entire life.  I initially ran because I loved to compete and it was a way to travel to cool places.  Running took me through high school and college.  It has helped keep me in shape (and keep my sanity) as a wife and mom of two.  I am now very ready, for the first time in my life, to run with more purpose.  I am running to help raise donations for the MS Cure fund. 

The MS Cure Fund is a national nonprofit organization based in Boston, MA dedicated to help create awareness, educate and raise funds for MS research to help find a CURE for Multiple Sclerosis.  It was founded in 2004 by MS patient Susan Strachan.

I have met Susan and I am amazed at her motivation, drive and her "to do" list.  She is someone that is managing her MS and leading an extremely successful/accomplished life.  I have also met many other MS patients that are motivated and driven, but are too limited by their MS, whether it be physically or cognitively to accomplish all that they want to do.

Plain and simple, I want to help.  I know that I am starting small, but I am moving in the right direction.  I also know that every cent helps when it comes to research.  I am committed to running AND reaching my fundraising goal.

I am extremely appreciative of all of your help and consideration.  I know with your help this will be my best run ever!!

Thanks again!!  Alicia
