Please help support this foundation in the memory of Beth Lazor-Smith.
Dirty Girl Trail Race
For 2020, the race will be dedicated to the memory of one of our multiple-time past entrants, Beth Lazor-Smith. Beth passed away suddenly in the fall of 2019 from a blood clot in her brain following heart surgery. Despite years of challenging health issues, Beth lived life to the fullest and stayed active through chronic pain and fatigue. Beth was a dear friend of mine and to honor her, I've set up a PledgeReg to go along with the race. Beth's mother passed away from lung cancer and the Go2 Foundation for Lung Cancer was near and dear to Beth's heart. Donations will be accepted in her memory.
