This year Hyland, The Official Cramp Relief Sponsor of the Boston Marathon, has hand-selected 18 selfless health professionals from more than 500 applications from across America to celebrate. We would like to congratulate our own Maniac member #10384 Jamie Richard from Washington state who has been chosen to be on the Hyland's 2019 Boston Marathon Healer Team.
Richard serves as a pediatric ER nurse as well as a hospital supervisor at Mary Bridge Children's Hospital in Tacoma, WA. She has dedicated her life to improving children's health and says, "I absolutely love taking care of kids, it's the best job." She says that running has undoubtedly contributed positively to her professional life. “Running has given me self confidence in all areas of my life, especially at work,” she says. “Running has made me realize that I am a leader.”
In her eight years running, she has completed 29 marathon, three 50-mile races, and several 50Ks. This 2019 she will complete her forth Boston Marathon as a Healer. Richard comments, "I believe that being a runner and Healer go hand in hand, as Healers we always persevere." Awesome job Jaime, you're such an inspiration to us all and we wish you the best of luck!
