I am running the Hartford Marathon next Saturday (October 12) in an effort to raise money for a charity called Griffin's Friends. 

Located in Springfield, Massachusetts, Griffin's Friends honors my cousin, Griffin Kelleher, in an effort to "Bring moments of joy to courageous kids."  Through fundraising events like the Marathon Challenge, Griffin's Friends is able to provide support for families with children who are in treatment for cancer.

I'm grateful to be able to participate in this great event and I hope to raise as much money as I can over the next week for an organization that has been a part of my life forever. Thank you!
