Happy to announce that myself along with my son Parker will be running the New York City Marathon  as a member of  Tedy's Team. Parker has been given this great opportunity due to another team member sustaining an injury.  Parker is excited to run with the team and I am extremely proud that he has taken on this challenge to fundraise and  train for a marathon running in support of the Tedys Team Mission.  

The mission of Tedy's Team is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback! Tedy's Team was originally founded in 2005, when Tedy Bruschi, former linebacker for the New England Patriots suffered a stroke shortly after winning his 3rd Super Bowl and just days after returning from his first Pro Bowl.

I am sure everyone knows someone, a friend or family member who has been impacted by heart disease or stroke. For Parker and I, its my brother (his uncle)Paul, who is a heart attack survivor, as well as my mother-in-law  Ann (his grandmother), who is a stroke survivor. We have seen their struggles and successes fighting these horrible conditions.
