Grew up and raised my family in Melrose. Started runner while I was in college. Then after the birth of my second child re-entered the fitness world, as a aerobics instructor then trainer and then Yoga Teacher. In 2001 opened my own Yoga studio Yoga in Melrose/Yoga in Me.

I started running again the mid 90’s running 5ks and finally over years making my way up to 10K, Falmouth (7 miles), Army 10 miler, then halfs and finally the Marine Corps Marathon 2012…during a incoming hurricane. Over that course of time deal with life and injuries.

From 2000 to 2004 running with my son at X-Country meets giving splits to his HS team, and this is when I gained a fondness of Franklin Park. Remembering the Braveheart looking charge across the great field at the start of each race. And, Myself doing the BAA halfs at Franklin Park, finishing in the beautiful White Stadium.

So it was a natural choice to pick the Franklin Park Coalation.

Cross-Country is such a great sport for youth, and having such a great place to hold these large meets is special. As well as all the other running and art events that take place at Franklin Park.

It have been a dream of mine for years to run the BAA Boston Marathon…….Please donate today to help support the Park and my run.
