Meet Team Getty Runners: Kristi

From Kate:

I seem to always be excited for Wednesday’s to come. It  gives me a chance to introduce the world to some amazing warriors that are willing to put their running shoes on to train for a marathon in honor of our little Getty as one of the Team Getty Runners. Today’s runner is an amazing mommy, without a doubt the biggest Duck and Dave Mathews Band fan and equally terrific wife. We are lucky to know her and her family. Tonight I want to introduce you to Kristi Carichoff.

Name: Kristi
Age: 35
Birthday: June 25
Favorite Colors: Green and Gold!
Hobbies: Family time, exercise, writing
Have you ever ran a marathon? No
Had you ever heard of SMA? Yes

I am happy to support the Mathany-Storm family and others who are battling this horrible disease. I am a lover of music (Dave Matthews, please), sunshine, the Oregon Ducks, and my cool little family. I work part time as a paralegal and have a great husband and 5 year old son. Go Team Getty!

Kristi, we can’t thank you enough for committing to helping raise awareness for SMA. Ever since Getty’s diagnosis you have been a warrior and we are simply humbled and inspired by your motivation. Hugs and kisses to Mr. Andy.
