Help Shannon raise money

For participating in The 2023 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

Hi everyone! This summer I am running the Falmouth road race with Tommy’s place to raise money for their non-profit organization. Tommy’s place owns vacation homes for children battling cancer to serve as a getaway for them and their families. I am honored to be able to run as a part of this team. 

This organization meant a lot to my aunt Liesl, who unfortunately lost her courageous battle with colon cancer in 2019. So I run, with my cousins Alison and Alexa, in honor of her and to continue the spread of her legacy, “Because nice matters”. Cancer is a difficult card to be dealt and unfortunately, it hits way too close to home for so many of us. So I run in honor of those currently battling, dealing, or having dealt with this horrible disease. 

Any amount of donation helps, Thank you all for your support!
