Marathon Runners

Hello! My name is Bernice Reznick and I am a 68yr old proud mother of 3 and even prouder Grandma of 2 beautiful, energetic boys. I grew up in Northwestern CT, and then lived in Newport RI for 18yrs. I have only been a resident of the beautiful town of Ashland for 5 years but I can truly say I feel as if I have been a part of this community forever. I have been working in the Boston area at Dana Farber Cancer Institute for over 15 years and decided to find a home closer to my job. I could not have made a better choice! Ashland reminds me so much of the small close knit towns I grew up in and still hold many happy memories. Here, I enjoy going to the Farmer’s Markets, browsing through the library, taking evening yoga classes there, and finding a peaceful spot at the Ashland State Park to read or just enjoy the nature and the people around me
I have never run a marathon before so this is a challenge for me. But the ability to raise money for a community I have come to call home and to run the greatest marathon in the world is an honor I cannot pass up. I consider myself blessed to have been chosen this year and as I run the streets of Ashland training for the race, I feel even more connected to the community and the people! I hope to make my family, friends and myself proud while running this amazing race and am so happy to help provide some financial support for all the wonderful things Ashland provides for its citizens in need.
If you are able to donate I would be grateful beyond words! If you are able to come out on Marathon Monday I hope to make you as happy to be a citizen of this wonderful community as I am!
