Leah and Malinda are identical twins and masters marathon moms. Leah and Malinda deemed themselves "Twins Run In Our Family" so they could share their experiences running together while supporting causes they care about. Since 2012, Leah and Malinda (@TwinsRun) have raised $2,867 to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation in memory of their grandmother, GG, and Leah's brother-in-law, Michael. Leah, the faster 1/2 of @TwinsRun, has qualified for the Boston Marathon (BQ) 4 times and finished 3 Boston Marathons (2013, 2014 and 2015). Malinda, the slower 1/2 of @TwinsRun, has yet to BQ after 9 unsuccessful attempts: 1st attempt October 13, 2013 Chicago Marathon 4:04:21 2nd attempt November 17, 2013 Philadelphia Marathon 4:04:40 3rd attempt April 5, 2014 Charlottesville Marathon 3:56:14 (1st sub-4) 4th attempt September 8, 2014 Rivanna Greenbelt Marathon 4:23:56 5th attempt November 23, 2014 Philadelphia Marathon 3:47:42 (PR) 6th attempt March 14, 2015 Rock 'N' Roll DC Marathon 3:54:58 7th attempt April 4, 2015 Charlottesville Marathon 4:19:12 8th attempt September 12, 2015 Rivanna Greenbelt Marathon 4:23:02 9th attempt November 22, 2015 Philadelphia Marathon 4:01:22 Malinda is training to succeed at her 10th attempt (the power of positive thinking!) at the 2016 Rock 'n' Roll DC Marathon on March 12. Although Malinda has yet to reach her 2017 BQ goal (3:55), you can help us her reach her fundraising goal - $355 to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer! No donation is too small - $2, $3, $4, $5 or more is greatly appreciated! Text LEMONADE E1121983 to 85944 to donate $10 by phone. Thanks for your support! www.alexslemonade.org/mypage/1121983
