Jen Smith -2024 Marathon Runner

Hey!! My name is Jen and I will be running the 2024 Boston Marathon for a local organization, The Friends of Hopkinton. Their mission is to provide community activities that encourage and support town spirit, enthusiasm and pride. The Friends of Hopkinton hold annual events that are open to the community such as Family Day in September.

Running the Boston Marathon for a local charity is an incredible privilege and an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in my community. As I lace up my running shoes and prepare for the iconic 26.2 mile journey, I am driven by the knowledge that every step I take will benefit a local charity. The Boston Marathon is not just a race, but a symbol of strength, determination, and resilience. By crossing the finish line, I aim to inspire others to believe in their own abilities and to show that together, we can create positive change. I am honored to be a part of this incredible event and to run for a local charity that is making a tangible impact on the lives of individuals and families in our community.

Please join me in the race to raise $6000 for this local charity by April 2024.
