Editor’s Note: Kimberly Dozier has been a CBS News correspondent since 2003. A Wellesley graduate, she started her career at CBS radio in Cairo in 1992. She moved to Israel, where she has had a home outside Jerusalem since 2003. Her new book, Breathing the Fire, is about her surviving — and what it took to recover from — a car-bomb attack while she was on assignment in Iraq.

Thanks to everyone who contributed for the Fisher House Team’s 10K run this weekend – part of the Marine Corps Marathon.

My single 1:20 or so run (at a penguin pace, but hey, I finished, and I never stopped running) raised more than $13,000 for Fisher House, where my colleague Cami McCormick’s family has stayed since she was hit in Logar province last August. Fisher House provides a place to stay for the loved ones of patients in the trauma setting, and 97.5 cents of every dollar given to Fisher House goes to supporting troops and their families.
