Hello, I'm Lori Sperber. In April of 2007 I chose to run my first marathon for charity and in memory of my dad, a decision which has brought me a lifetime of incredible and heartwarming memories. Since then, I have run several marathons and half-marathons for charity, and learned about the powerful gift of giving to others. I have decided to create RunningOnLove.org – a non-profit, charitable organization, with the mission to “Give Love…Touch Lives,” in dedicated support of noble and worthy causes.

For those who have run marathons, it is commonly said that at the 20-mile mark of the 26.2-mile marathon, it becomes incredibly tough to keep going. Personally, I found it difficult to drink water, let alone take in the much-needed nourishment for fuel. So what in the world kept me going when I was running on empty? Pure and simple – I was Running on Love!
