Duchess Meghan Markle’s Mom Just Ran A 5K!
Y’all, Meghan Markle has GOOD dna. Her mom, Doria Ragland, recently completed a 5K benefitting suicide prevention. And she looked great doing it!
The 63-year-old proud momma ran the 21st Annual Alive and Running 5k for Suicide Prevention in Los Angeles. The event raised an impressive $464,081 for Didi Hirsch Suicide Prevention Center, which is more than the organization’s initial goal of $400,000.
According to its website, Alive and Running “remembers loved ones lost to suicide while raising funds and awareness for the Didi Hirsch Suicide Prevention Center.” The organization is also a world leader in training, research and services for people who have thought about, attempted or lost someone to suicide.
Meghan and Prince Harry are also advocating for mental health during their tour of Africa. The couple spoke with reporters about the issue while visiting with Waves for Change, an organization that provides aid to young people through surfing.
Clearly, activism and athleticism is in the blood! We wonder if Meghan will join her in the run next year…
