This coming year will mark our 6th year participating in the American Lung Association Walk. I would like to invite you back again, or join us for the first time, in honoring our mom at the Lung Walk/5K on September 28th, 2019 in Allentown. Miles for Mom began after my mom passed away unexpectedly in February 2013, just shy of her 52nd birthday due to complications of lung disease. Miles for Mom is a way to honor her by running and logging miles on her behalf. My goal is to continue to use my healthy lungs and “be free to breathe”, as it was not so easy for her.

We have completed this walk and day of celebration the past five years and are looking forward to this upcoming year. Our team has grown from a duo of my sister and me in 2013 to almost 40 participants last year! Each year I am more amazed by the growing support of family and friends who wish to be a part of this special day. It gives me great comfort having an event dedicated to her in high attendance, and I could never fully express how grateful I am for all the support we have received.

Please join Miles for Mom and help us aid in the fight against lung disease while celebrating the life of our incredible mom! We hope to see you there!

Love,

Suzy
