Getting to the Finish Line

Hey friends, 

As you may know by now, I have taken on a new journey this spring. I have signed up to run my FIRST 10K on May 9th, the River Bank Run 10K! Not only have I signed up to be a runner, but I also signed up to be a FundRacer for Grand Valley State University as a member of the Laker4ALifetime team! I chose to do this because as a college graduate I know how trying the season of college can be, especially from a financial aspect. So, this is my new journey. 

The first piece of my new journey: me working as hard as possible to run this 10K. 
The second piece of my journey: raising $100 to contribute to the Laker4ALifetime team and the Student Support Fund. 
The third piece of my journey: crossing the finish line of the 10K, and helping students cross the finish line of their college journey. 

My challenge to you is to donate to my FundRacing journey, which can be done on my personal fundraising page found at the link below:

Any amount, big or small, will make a difference in the life of a student trying to get across the finish line of their college education. Please consider donating to my account and helping me achieve my goal of $100 this May. :) 

Your donation makes a difference in the life of GV students, as well as in my life, as this is something I have wanted to do for a long time. Please let me know if you have any questions or make a donation to my fundraising (I will send you a little something for your donation). I will be updating this blog as the training and fundraising go on, so please feel free to check back for more information, or to see how my training and fundraising are going!

Thanks, friends! You guys rock! Here starts the journey!
