I was supposed to be getting my Six Star Medal in Boston next month as a charity runner, but I was recently diagnosed with a femoral stress reaction and won’t be able to race anymore.

On the bright side, I was still able to raise over $10K for an amazing organization, which I’m really grateful for due to all of the support from friends and family.

Curious if anyone here has been through something similar or has advice on other ways to potentially get a Boston spot in the future? Also open to any tips on surviving life on crutches 😅

I’ll still be out there cheering you all on—good luck to everyone racing! 💙💛
