More than a year after I started this campaign, the 2020 Nashville Marathon 5K has been cancelled. With COVID-19 on an uptick, I likely wouldn't feel comfortable enough be in the crowd anyway. So, with roughly $350 to raise before the end of 2020, I wanted to share the virtual race that we did this spring on the original race day (April 25th 2020).
I also wanted to share more about my Barefoot family and the mission that I am so passionate about-beyond summer camps and crazy weekends. We truly are a family, despite not being able to come together in a typical way. BRC was recently featured on ABC Nightline. Please take a moment to watch.
When I heard about the plan to raise a significant amount of money for Barefoot Republic's 2020 scholarship fund, I was on board quickly. There's no way could I actually run on race day, especially considering my physical struggles over the past 2 years. Or could I? 2020 represents many new beginnings for me, and this race is a part of that goal. I'll be completing the 5K (on wheels) in Nashville on Saturday April 25th. I'm getting a late start on fundraising, but I'd appreciate your support of an organization and mission that I have become deeply connected with over the last 5 years.
