After losing my son, Tyler (aka T-Mac), to kidney cancer at the age of 28, my mom and my sister to lung cancer, it's become my life's mission to help as many families as I can through my passion for running. Every dollar raised by Team T-Mac for the Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge team helps extend time a family has with their loved one stricken with this disease.
In 2024, hundreds of Dana-Farber runners will take to the streets to participate in the 128th Boston Marathon®. The Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge team runs and raises funds with thousands of special people in mind. From Hopkinton to Boston, we carry thoughts of those people every step of the way.
One hundred percent of every dollar raised by the DFMC team supports the Claudia Adams Barr Program in Innovative Basic Cancer Research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. These funds are fueling some of today's most promising basic cancer research.
Thank you for your support! Together, we're headed toward the ultimate finish line: a world without cancer.
