In April 2024, along with hundreds of Dana-Farber runners I will be taking 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. Over the years cancer has affected several members of my close family - I am running in their memory.
Approximately 4 in 10 people will have cancer at some point in their lifetime. One hundred percent of every dollar raised by myself and 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.
The region that I manage at Michael Page has raised thousands of dollars for Dana-Farber the past 2 years through various fund raising events - this year Page Group are matching every dollar donated to help me achieve my $15,000 fundraising commitment!!! Those of you that know me will know that I am built for comfort, not for speed, so training during these harsh New England months is going to be (and is!) a real challenge!
Thank you for your support! Together, we're headed toward the ultimate finish line: a world without cancer.
