Welcome to my fundraising page! I have been battling cancer on and off for over 14 years so this is going to be a very heartfelt run for me. I ran this half marathon as my very first in 2018 and raised the $300 almost right away. I would love to be able to do this again and my running friends say if you speak it into existence it will happen so here I am. This will be my comeback race after I finish kicking cancer for the second time! I have been struggling with this mentally and exercise has been my outlet so please support me in this! I am happy to run for a cause I believe in and am trying to 'pay it forward' and make an impact by raising funds for an organization that helps local people dealing with cancer. All proceeds support Cancer Connection and they offer their services free of charge to make a difference in people's lives.
During these unprecedented times, please help me support this cause.
No donation is too small! Thank you for supporting me!
