Okay, friends! I have decided to challenge myself for my 50th birthday, which is coming up on Oct. 30th.
Rather than asking for donations (which are always welcome) to Baypath Humane Society of Hopkinton, Inc., I want to so something different.
Running with friends and walking the dogs has played such an important role in me getting healthy and making it to 50. There was a time when I wasn’t so sure I would make it to the next day, week, or month, let alone year. I was critically ill with a rare autoimmune disease. I have battled it since 2003, enduring years and years and rounds and rounds of painful infusions, including chemo, debilitating medicine, and so much more. Running and my pets (most id whom are Baypath babies) and volunteering at Baypath were part of the elixir I needed to begin to win over this disease that has no cure.
I would like to honor all three by having my friends and family join me for Baypath’s virtual race, the 2020 Paws & Claws 5k.
So please join me!
