Rachel leaves behind a legacy of love - three beautiful children, a devoted husband, and parents and brothers and so much family who miss her every day. She touched the lives of a community of runners, bicyclists, fellow mamas, and even her doctors and pastor, who all reveled in her light. Challenging herself and each of us to #lovebetter - we are uniting to run, walk, or otherwise move as we remember, honor, and celebrate the spirit, joy, love, humor and delight that Rachel shared with all of us.
