This September, the MenoPosse is coming together from across the country to Run the D with our friend, Carole.

Carole was diagnosed with a rare

autosomal recessive muscular degenerative disease, similar to ALS but with a

slower progression. She set a deeply personal goal: to complete her first half

marathon while she still can.

When Carole shared that she had

hoped to find someone to train and run with but hadn?t been successful, we knew

one thing: she wasn?t going to do this alone.

What started as one woman?s goal

has become a team. Women from across the country are training together,

traveling to Detroit, and showing up beside Carole on race day. Others will be

racing virtually from all over the country.

You don?t have to run the race to

be part of her team. Grab a shirt, wear it proudly, cheer her on from wherever

you are, and help us remind Carole (and each other!) that when life gets hard,

community matters. And we don't have to do hard things alone.
