Hi!

I will be running the 2026 Chicago Marathon with the American Heart Association in honor of my dad. My dad was always my biggest athletic supporter, especially when I started running after college. I would give anything to have my dad be there for this marathon, so I will be dedicating my first marathon to him.

Support for the American Heart Association will go to research for heart disease, improvement of care, and CPR training. 

I would greatly appreciate any and all donations/support/memories of my dad/anything in between. 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Grace
