In 2015, my grandmother passed away from stage 4 ovarian cancer. I would love nothing more than to honor her by doing the NYC Half Marathon while supporting Tell Every Amazing Lady, since she always loved to walk and stay active. As she was a primary caregiver of mine when I was younger, she would always teach me the importance of moving your body and staying strong. We would go on walks everyday, and I would never realize how long they were since I loved spending time with her. Ever since then, I have participated in sports every year of my life, and it has become a huge part of who I am. I feel that completing this half marathon in honor of Tell Every Amazing Lady would serve as a perfect way to honor her and every woman that has gone through or is currently going through ovarian cancer.
