My Story…
Looking to help raise funds for Concussion Legacy Foundation. "The Concussion Legacy Foundation's mission is to support athletes, Veterans, and all affected by concussions and CTE; achieve smarter sports and safer athletes through education and innovation; and to End CTE through prevention and research." Having played football in high school (De La Salle High School, Concord, CA) and in college (Cornell University, Ithaca, CA), I learned so much and made life-long friends through the sport. But as we learn more about CTE, I want to help bring education of the long-term effects that football can have to help minimize risks to make informed decisions.
Description
CTE is a degenerative brain disease that has devastated the lives of contact sport athletes and military Veterans. The Concussion Legacy Foundation is leading the fight to End CTE through prevention, research, and education.
Runners are raising funds for programs like:
- The CLF Global Brain Bank, a network of experts at Boston University and in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Brazil working to learn how to diagnose and treat CTE.
- Tackle Can Wait, which aims to prevent CTE in children.
- The CLF HelpLine, which provides 1-on-1 support for patients and caregivers battling suspected CTE.
