As the Founder of Every Mother Counts, I couldn’t NOT join the team, and this photo is me on the course a decade ago. Now, I embark on my training for this year’s NYC Marathon, running those very same streets, I am filled with awe and pride for what Team EMC has achieved. This Team has inspired so many others to join our efforts to raise awareness and funds in support of achieving equitable access to safe and respectful maternity care around the world. In 7 years I’d run 8 full marathons completing the big six, NYC x2, Chicago x2, London, Boston, Berlin, Tokyo, plus a few dozen half marathons in Tanzania, Haiti, NY and San Francisco. We have had thousands of people run for and with Team EMC and raised more than 5 million dollars Still, the global estimates for maternal mortality are approximately 300,000 women and girls who die each year all because they cannot access care of any kind, let alone quality care. That’s two mothers every minute. And that’s why I am as committed as ever to fulfill our mission to make pregnancy and childbirth safe for every mother, everywhere. My goal is to raise $10,000 in celebration of 10 years participating in this race. Because of Coronavirus, I was not able to run my 9th full marathon in 2020, so this is my year to race again in my city, where I ran my first, and I am going to give it my all.
