Run For Lo

London Marathon 2025

We're fundraising for Lo

Hello everyone! We are excited to be running the 2025 London Marathon in honor of our dear friend Lauren who we lost this past May. We are running in support of Rethink Mental Illness, a leading charity provider of mental health services in the UK.

Lauren was a passionate runner, a charitable missionary, a motivated professional, and an incredible mother and friend. She saw running as a tool to build self-confidence and never missed an opportunity to empower others while doing it. Lauren had a dream to run all of the World Major Marathons, and as her high school cross country friends, we believe the best way to honor her is to carry her across these finish lines ourselves! 

Lo’s enthusiasm for life continues to inspire us each and every day, and we would love your support as we help her accomplish this World Majors dream!

Sincerely,

Emma Atwell, Sierra Dinges, & Emily Waters

Go get ‘em big dogs. You can’t properly honor Lauren’s running legacy if you don’t pee your pants or dramatically flop on the ground at the finish like. Just keep that in mind.
