Please help me support Organization for Autism Research! As most of you know, my son Lars is on the Autism spectrum. He was diagnosed when he was around 2 and has been in therapy 2 to 3 times per week for the past 9 years. He is one of the strongest, most resilient, kindest, hardest working, selfless people I know. I run these races because of him. I know I'll never be as strong as him but anything I can do to help give back to the amazing children/adults in this community, I'm here for it! Please consider donating to this amazing organization!
