Goal
Hello friends!
I’m running the NYC marathon this November 3rd, and it means a lot to have your support.
I’ve been running inconsistently for 15 years, and it’s always been a source of joy, freedom, and gratitude for this little body I reside in. This is the first time I associate running with a goal, and it feels like there’s never been a better time for that. 2024 has been a year of downs & ups and big life changes, and this race is something tremendously hopeful and fun on my horizon.
There’s no place I’d rather run a first marathon than in NYC - my adoptive home for over a decade - this throbbing, incoherent, at times detestable city that I’ve come to love so much. If you’ll be in the city on November 3rd, check it out (and then give me a high-five on the course).
And there’s no organization I’d rather be running with than the Friends of Governors Island. For those of you who haven’t been, Governors Island is a small patch of land a stone throw away from both Manhattan and Brooklyn. It’s rich with history and a perfect place for taking in sunsets, art installations, and tandem bike rides with your brother (who is not to be trusted on
a tandem bike). But more than that, Governors Island is at the heart of NYC’s efforts to play a leading role building a positive future with climate change, both through its programming and as host of the upcoming Climate Exchange, a nonprofit organization and campus dedicated to climate research and solutions. It’s slated to start construction next year and open in 2028. As I transition my career to focus on climate, well, these are my people. And your gift, if you choose to donate, helps make that positive future a reality.
