I have always enjoyed running, and it's something that Tally and I have in common. Last year, she ran the TC 10 Miler as a part of Team Superstars for Children's Minnesota, and I thought it was really great to see how driven she was to do her best, but also to do her best in fundraising for a wonderful organization. So I decided to do my part and run Grandma's Half-marathon this year with Team Superstars to support Children's Minnesota. This will be my fifth half-marathon. I have never broken two hours, so that is my personal goal this time around.

Why give to Children's Minnesota you ask? Here's why. No matter whether you're forced into an unimaginable journey of really needing the extensive skill set their hospital offers, or you need to take your rambunctious one-year old to the ER for stiches because he was barreling around day-care and fell into a bookcase *cough* Eddie *cough*... it's a place that focuses on healing children while remembering they are children. Most importantly, they help the children remember they are children. It's a wonderful hospital with a wonderful mission, and that's why I am running with Team Superstars in support of Children's Minnesota.
