After sitting out the last 2 New York Marathons I decided I really wanted to run it again. This will be my 12th marathon and my 8th New York City Marathon, but most importantly this will be my 4th year running as a member of the Bone Health and Osteoporosis Foundation Team. I initially joined the inaugural “Be Bone Strong Team” after meeting Barbara Hannah Grufferman, our team captain, the year before. Up until then I had never run for a charity but decided to become a team member to help raise awareness of the importance of bone health. I especially like that BHOF focuses on promoting bone health for all ages because the time to think about bone health actually starts when you are young! So because I love the New York City Marathon and because I believe everyone needs to be aware of how to maintain good bone health, I am running and raising funds to benefit the Bone Health and Osteoporosis Foundation. 

I appreciate any donation that you can make!

Thank you ,
