Why I'm Running 26.2 Miles

On October 12, 2025, I will be representing Advocate Health Care as a member of their charity running team at the Bank of America Chicago Marathon! 

Joining this team feels unreal. It gives me the opportunity to run for a beautiful cause and even more special, it is taking place on my mom's birthday! My mom is the most selfless person I know and taught me the importance of giving back, helping others every chance we get, and loving unconditionally. 

Your donation will help so many children, adults, and families altogether by: 

• Supporting cancer research
• Helping children and adults with Down syndrome
• Giving back to EMS, nurses, and physicians who save lives every day and so much more

Every $1 counts and will help me achieve my goal of raising $1,500 to ensure that people have access to the care they need and deserve. 

Thank you so much for your support!

With love,

Edith
