2025 will be Char\u2019s second year with the Eureka run, after spending ten years running with Bloomington.<\/p>\n

\u201cI run for St Jude because as a nurse I have cared for many children afflicted by cancer. It is heartbreaking to see their suffering, but at the same time, I marvel at their tenacity and resilience. Fundraising for St. Jude on their behalf is one small thing that I can do to honor and support them and their families. \u00a0 I also run giving thanks and praise to God that I have been blessed with two healthy children (now 25 and 29).\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the camaraderie that accompanies the runs! \u00a0My best memories are from the years that my youngest son, Joe, ran with me \u2764\ufe0f. 2012 marked a personal best for me. I ran 20.1 miles\u2026 I joke that I have never been the same since!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am looking forward to the 2025 run with the Eureka group!\u201d<\/p>\n

Char, after all these years talking about the run, it was great having you out there with us and having the opportunity to catch up. Thank you for all you have done to support the kids of St. Jude over the years.\u00a0 We are looking forward to having you out there with us again in 2025!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
