My name is Hanna Adams and I am excited to be running my sixth Boston Marathon! I will run as a qualified Adaptive runner, and am thrilled to join the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation Team as Captain this spring.
I was born with cerebral palsy, right-sided hemiplegia, and learning disabilities. Throughout my journey, I’ve learned that I can go the distance if I set one goal at a time and work hard every day to improve. I attended the Threshold Program at Lesley University that helps people with disabilities including cerebral palsy and autism. Thriving in this program with other young adults facing challenges, I learned that I can make a difference, reach my dreams, and grow in my abilities to lead. I have witnessed many people with different abilities build on their strengths and reach incredible milestones. Running is the place I feel strong, confident and capable. I put the work into training with my Flutie teammates each week and cross the Finish Line every year! This coming year, 2024 will be my fourteen marathon and I am privileged to join the DOUG FLUTIE JR. FOUNDATION FOR AUTISM Team as Captain. I am proud to run strong knowing together “we Can Do 26.2!”
I dedicate my training and run this spring to helping people with autism build on their strengths and feel the exhilaration of success. I am truly grateful to be surrounded by an awesome team of dedicated hard working athletes. I know with your help we can make a difference for people with autism and their families. Please consider making a donation towards my fundraising goal. Each dollar I raise goes directly to the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism, Inc. Together, we are BOSTON STRONG!
