Please sponsor me:

Help me reach my goal of: $13,000
So far I've raised: $21,473.42



I am fundraising for Children's Hospital!

Hi Everyone,


I want to thank all of you for your support in my marathon run!  I am currently 3rd in fundraising so that makes me happy that I have made such a big impact, all thanks to you all that have donated!  I finished the Boston Marathon in 4:27.  For those of you that were here in Boston watching it was a really beautiful but a hot day!  I have to say this is one of the hardest things I have ever done and I was so fortunate to run with one of my best friends, Jodi Sorrells.  I wouldn't have made it with out her by my side and my friend Nora looking down on me.

As you may have read or seen, my friend Nora passed away from her fight with Cancer the night before the marathon.  I am not going to say anything more publicly about Nora except that I miss her very much and I know her family and friends do as well.  There are people that come into our lives for whatever reason and leave a long lasting imprint in our hearts and minds.  Thank you Nora for making my life better and bringing smiles to so many.  

Always Believe,

Kristine Lilly
