My Story…
I am running the Race to End CTE in memory of Patrick Risha '06, Hunter Foraker '14, and Dylan Karczewski '99.
CTE is a devastating neurodegenerative disease caused by repetitive head impacts in sports and military service that can only be diagnosed after death. I am raising funds to support the Concussion Legacy Foundation’s End CTE campaign, which is leading efforts to prevent, diagnose, and treat CTE while supporting patients and families fighting the disease.
