Your support means the world to me! Hi, I'm Becca and I started my running journey on and off in college, it was a love-hate relationship. It wasn't until last year that I really leaned into running as a way to support my mental health. Now, I run when I'm happy, stressed, sad, angry, anxious, and anything in between. It has become a safe space to leave my thoughts on the pavement. Running has taught me to trust myself, believe that I'm capable of way more than I thought, it's brought me life long friends, and community.
I was presented with the opportunity to run a world major with Team Chicago Run, and it was hard to say no to. I never thought I would run a marathon, but here we are.
Team Chicago Run empowers thousands of young people from Pre-K through high school with equitable access to inclusive running and physical activity programs. Through the power of sport, Chicago Run builds resilience to stress and trauma and develop social and emotional skills. Learn more here!
I'm honored to get to run with this organization, and represent them on my journey to completing the Chicago Marathon. Thank you for your support and donation!
