"2019 was a great year. I had landed my dream job at the Coca-Cola Company. I raced a great marathon in Chicago despite spotty training. On October 19th, a cold winter day around mile 19, when I saw my son Sammy, my friend Darby holding my daughter Colette, and my husband Jervey in the Chinatown area, I got a second wind and dug myself out of a rough patch...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I thought I would keep on running, competing, and getting new PRs like this.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was wrong. 2020 happened.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I learned of the shooting and killing of Ahmaud Arbery, I was in shock and disgust. Friends and I did our #IRunWithMaud run. We hashtagged, posted photos, and joined Black Lives Matter marches. Yet a nagging feeling stayed with me. That I was not doing enough. I had relied on my privileges as being the model minority for too long. It was time to make amends."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
