Running the Boston Marathon for Tufts Medical Center

Name & Age - Gina Hale (31 years old)

My Gaol - As a first time marathoner, I'm just looking to finish:)

Reason for running - I will be running as a member of TEAM TUFTS MC to raise support for Tufts Medical Center.   Working at the medical center during the events of the 2013 Boston Marathon really showed me what a wonderful organization Tufts MC is.  It was incredible to watch people from all corners of the Medical Center come together and tend to victims of the explosions, support one another and protect the patients already at the hospital. I am proud to run for an organization was a vital part of the response efforts following last year’s Marathon tragedy and that has such strong ties to this historic event.  Please help me fundraise for such a good cause!
