Running the New York City Marathon has been at the top of my bucket list for years, but this year, it means something much deeper. After losing my dad last year, I knew I wanted to do something significant to honor his memory. He worked in New York City for over seven years, and throughout my life, he was the one who taught me the true value of hard work and the importance of always showing up for others. By joining Team Baldwin, I’m finally running the city streets he knew so well—not just to check a goal off my list, but to embody the same dedication and commitment to community that he instilled in me every single day. I am honored to run for this cause and to carry his spirit with me through all 26.2 miles
