Harmony Partners With Kidney Cancer Association For August “Harmony Helps” Fundraiser

http://ewoltech.it/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron=1575066014.3206429481506347656250 When Jamie runs – people take notice. It may be the orange racing singlet, or perhaps the sparkly orange headband. Certainly the orange tulle tutu stands out and even her racing flats have an orange ribbon woven into the laces. And while the costume provides opportunities for Jamie to bring awareness to the work of the Kidney Cancer Association, it is also a constant reminder that she is running 26.2 miles in honor of the 26 years she had with her dad.

http://ewoltech.it/en/boat-show-en/metstrade-2019/ I met Jamie six years ago, only days after her dad’s funeral. She came to Harmony as respite from the stress and sadness of losing a parent. She wanted to take time – if only for an hour a week – to focus on herself. Week after week she came to class and her body became stronger, she stopped keeping her Blackberry by her side during class (shock and awe!) and we both relished the opportunity to grab a Starbucks coffee after class, often talking long into the evening about our families, our work and our goals.

Now, countless marathons later, Jamie still comes to Harmony to make sure her core is strong, she still gives me a dirty look each time I make her roll out her IT band on the foam roller (you know it is always tight, Jamie), and every year I am out on the race course cheering her on and yelling “Run like the wind!” – just as her dad always did.
