This year I was given the opportunity to create the art work for a race that is dear to my heart. It was my first half marathon! This race is created to support the women of my community and that is exactly what I wanted to display. I used real women that I run daily with, along with iconic symbols and buildings in our area that are special to us. The buildings and symbols are also a part of our view has we run our half marathon route. I was very excited to be honored to create such an empowering piece for our community. Now we train and get ready for race day!
