This past weekend I completed the Shape Women’s Half Marathon in New York City. My goal was to run the race in under 2 hours and guess what? I did it! My official race time was 1:59:26 and I am so proud of what I accomplished!
What I am even more proud of is the incredible way my community supported my initiative to raise money for the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. My original goal was to raise $2,000 and I am so proud and humbled to say that we (not just me!) exceeded the goal and raised $3,455 for LICADD.
I lost my BIG brother, Sean Russo, to this horrific disease on April 26, 1996. This was a very special way for me to honor his memory by helping others who suffer from the devastating effects of addiction.
There are so many people who showed me support mentally, physically and emotionally as I’ve been training to run these three half marathons. This Boss Lady knows that I could not have achieved these goals without my tribe cheering me on.
THANK YOU for all of your support!
