THE MOMS ON THE RUN LEGACY
In 2017, Zebra Crossings was given the opportunity to adopt the Moms On The Run 5K, which was created by Nicole Kurr and Janet Gnall to benefit Dover charities.
“Ten years ago, we were a couple of moms wanting to make a difference in our community, so we decided to organize an event. Our goal was to educate & create awareness of a local non-profit organization.
Our first race had over 300 participants, ten years later we had over 1,000, and our event has donated over $80,000 to local non-profits. WOW, what an amazing experience this has been!!!
We are ready to begin a new journey. We couldn’t be happier to pass the torch to a well-deserved local non-profit, Zebra Crossings of Dover.
We are truly grateful for your support, and continued support of the Moms on the Run race. Many thanks to all for helping a couple of moms make a difference. ”
- Nicole & Janet, Founders of Moms On The Run
Becca Pizzi will be joining us at our Moms On The Run 5K this year!
We are excited to have Becca join us for our Moms On The Run 5K.
Who is Becca? Becca is a Bostonian, a mom, an author, a business owner, a lifelong runner, and the first US woman to complete the World Marathon Challenge (7 marathons in 7 days on 7 continents)!
Becca is 44 years old, a 1998 Belmont High School graduate, and lives in Belmont MA with her husband Joe and 16 year old daughter Taylor.
Becca was the first American female to run the World Marathon Challenge in 2016, 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days. Then in 2018 she went back, and made history by running it again and breaking the Guinness Book of World Record in a time of 6 Days, 7 Hours and 58 minutes. Becca has completed a marathon in all 50 states. She has finished the World Marathon Majors and has run 19 consecutive Boston Marathons! She raced Kona Ironman World Championships in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii in 2023.
Becca attributes her success to her family and the Boston Community who both have inspired her and supported her dreams. She is most passionate about directing the Becca Pizzi 5k race in Belmont, and the Becca Pizzi Foundation, which provides local high school students with sports equipment and college scholarships. Becca is also the author of the children’s book “Becca’s Feat on Feet” (Becca’s Feat on Feet). All book proceeds benefit the Becca Pizzi Foundation.
Zebra Crossings is honored to have Becca join us at this year’s run.
To learn more about Becca check out her website or Facebook page.
GET TO KNOW US
Each child is unique, but they also have a lot in common and can relate to each other because of their conditions. On their own, they often stand out in their communities because of their perceived limitations or needs. However, in our community, we find strength in numbers and feel empowered. The Zebra Crossings team is committed to furthering this mission.
The efforts of Zebra Crossings are supported by our generous sponsors, both individual and business. Want to join the ranks?
