TEAM RARE 26.2

This fall, I’m running 26.2 miles for two very special little girls; my nieces, Sophie (6) and Suzy (3), who are living with a rare disease. 

Being their uncle means getting to watch these two incredible girls grow, laugh, play, and show a strength that amazes me. At just 5 and 3 years old, they have already faced challenges that no child should have to face. Yet they continue to bring so much joy, love, and light to everyone around them.

That’s why I’m running. From October 12 through November 13, I’ll be taking on Team RARE 26.2, running 26.2 miles in honor of Sophie and Suzy.

Every mile will be for them. Every step will be a reminder that they have an entire family standing behind them and cheering them on.

And while I’ll be running, you can participate however you’d like. Run, walk, bike, hike, dance, roll, or simply find a way to move that works for you. Complete your 26.2 miles in a day, a week, or throughout the month. There is no wrong way to do it. If you’d like to join me, I’d love for you to move alongside me in whatever way you choose and help me honor Sophie and Suzy. 

You can also help by sharing this post, supporting my fundraiser, or simply spreading awareness about rare diseases. Every bit of support matters.

Sophie and Suzy, your Uncle is running these 26.2 miles for you.

For your strength.
For your courage.
For your future.
For all the adventures still ahead.

26.2 miles. Two amazing nieces. One very big reason to run. 

Thank you,

Charlie
