Running Together to Remember on St. Patrick's Day

Michael, Leah's Irish brother-in-law, died of leukemia on St. Patrick's Day.

Today and all days, our thoughts are with those who loved Michael and all those who had the privilege of knowing him.

We run together in memory of Michael, Walter, and Cathy who all died from cancer.

One year ago we started our 1st fundraising page with Team Lemon to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer in memory of Michael. Four months later, our grandma GG died of cancer, too.

Over the past year, we ran four races together and raised over $1,500 in memory of Michael and GG.

This year, @TwinsRun Boston Athletic Association 5K on April 14 and Bank of America Chicago Marathon on October 13 together to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation.

Aileen O’Connor Hill
January 7, 1938 – July 16, 2012

Leah's brother-in-law, Michael Connor, was diagnosed with leukemia as a child. Michael fought cancer with his inspiring Irish spirit, so it was bittersweet when he died on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2003.

The twins’ Irish grandmother, Aileen O'Connor Hill, was diagnosed with cancer on Friday, July 13 and died on Monday, July 16, 2012. Her sudden and unexpected death has affected the twins profoundly. Their grief is intense, but the twins find solace in running in her memory.
