Our very own Mini Milers founder, Mary Vickers, ran the Boston Marathon on April 20th, 2026! 🦄
Many runners enter Boston through charity programs that require raising thousands of dollars. Mary was incredibly fortunate to be gifted her bib by Adrianne Haslet, a survivor of the 2013 Boston Marathon attack, and chose to use that opportunity to raise funds for Mini Milers so more kids in our community can experience the confidence, joy, and lifelong benefits that come from running.
And thanks to this amazing community… we met and surpassed our $2,500 goal! 💛
Because of your generosity, Mini Milers can continue providing scholarships, equipment, and opportunities that help keep our program accessible and welcoming for local kids.
To every person who donated, shared, encouraged, and cheered along the way… thank you. Your support means more than we can say and directly helps more kids discover confidence, movement, and their own happy pace. 🏃♀️✨
The marathon may be over, but the impact of your support will keep going mile after mile.
