Help Juanli raise money

In 2019, before pandemic hit, a group of close friends trained diligently together and ran Richmond marathon, which was for most of us the first personal marathon and my 2nd. During the past three to four years, something have changed. We didn’t get to run the Chicago marathon in 2020. Some of us, at certain point, either have friends diagnosed with cancer, or personally scared of the possibility of having risk for cancer. When I decided to register for Philly race, I have debated between half vs full marathon. Then I said to myself, why not a full marathon to celebrate the end of pandemic?! Also more importantly, any contribution to the AACR would be helpful to friends, friends’ friends or the whole community who are conquering cancer now or future. 

When I created this page, I had my dear friend who was battling lung cancer in mind. Today, August 18, 2023, my dear friend left us. I am thinking, probably it’s time to publish this page to honor my friend who was also an enthusiastic runner. We were going to run Chicago marathon together, but never did…

Thank You! And Stay Strong, my friends!
