Hello! My name is Holly Smith! I'm a mom to two amazing little boys, an auntie to many wonderful littles, and a wife to my loving husband. We recently relocated from California to Spring Hill, TN. We've always loved Spring Hill and have been saying we would move closer to my in-laws for years, but never made the move (now we finally have!).
Back in 2015/ 2016, I started running 5Ks, 10Ks, and 2 Half Marathons at my happy place (Disneyland and Disney World). I knew one day I wanted to tackle a marathon at Disney World, but kept saying "next year".
Last year my 4 year old was diagnosed with autism. We've been learning together in this journey. I saw the Walt Disney World Marathon sign ups, and thought, maybe "next year". This kept weighing on me, and I decided to see if there were any charities that support autism acceptance, and I found Dougie's Team. I prayed about it, submitted an application, and was selected to run!
I've also committed to fundraising $1500 (hopefully more!). Please follow my journey as I train for 26.2 miles! I could use all the prayers and support available. If you are able, I'd love if you would join me in meeting my goal for this wonderful charity. Counting down the days until 1/8/23!
