She's running the: Women's Quarter Marathon with her dad, Gordon Christie

​Catherine has Rett Syndrome, but that doesn't stop her. She loves being a part of her dad's runs and she's excited to #runWQM with the hundreds of other strong ladies this January.
I got in to running because my dad got into running. I have Rett Syndrome and cannot walk for myself. But, when I go out with my dad, we can run. We have had some great times together, seeing other awesome runners and taking in the sights.

I run because my dad needs to run and we have fun together during our races. We hope to do the Boston Marathon when I'm over 18 so dad's going to have to keep his training up in the meantime.
