This January, I will be running in the Miami Half-Marathon for the second time as part of Team Lifeline!

Often people ask me why I run for Team Lifeline and my answer is simple.

You dont have to have cancer to know that it is earth shattering.


You don’t have to have a child with cancer to know that watching one’s child suffer is excruciating.

You don’t have to have a family member with cancer to know how scary it is see someone go through chemo.

You don’t have to have a friend with cancer to know that this disease turns lives upside down.

You don’t have to have a workmate with cancer to know the toll this disease takes on a person and their loved ones.

I am grateful to be on the giving end of such an incredible organization that gives hope, support, encouragement and so much more to so many children battling cancer and their families.

Every dollar we raise and every mile I run will benefit Chai Lifeline, an international children’s health support network that provides critical year-round programs and services to nearly 6,000 families confronting pediatric illness.

I am excited to help raise awareness and funds for such an important and worthy cause.

My goal is to raise $10,000, but I need your help. Every donation is 100% tax deductible. Please join me in supporting this important organization by contributing to my personal runner page.

Together, we can make a difference.

Thank you for your support!
