My Story…
Hello everyone! First of all, thank you so much for even taking the time to open this page.
If you know my Dad, Jim Klein, then you know he is one of the most kind, genuine, and positive-spirited people you have ever met. Even if you don't know my Dad, you probably saw him cheering me on at every lacrosse game. Over the last 10+ years, my Dad's battle with Parkinson's has been incredibly difficult for my family, his siblings, his friends, and most of all - himself. Despite the dark shadow that Parkinson's shines over my Dad's life, he remains upbeat and smiling. He has lost the ability to so many everyday things yet continues to offer his unwavering support and help at every turn. His ability to inspire, though, will never fade.
Your donations will be going to a fantastic organization - The Parkinson's Foundation, where amazing work is being done to help families across the world impacted by this horrible disease. In August, I will be running the Parkinson's Champions - Falmouth Road Race for my Dad Jim!
Donating is totally optional and up to you! I just appreciate you taking the time to read our story!
"We may run for different reasons, but we share one goal: Beat Parkinson’s."
Description
I'm ready to run.
I'm running to raise funds and awareness with the Parkinson's Champions. I'm challenging myself to run the marathon to support the Parkinson’s Foundation.
The Parkinson's Foundation makes life better for people living with Parkinson's disease by improving care and advancing research toward a cure. Studies show that 2.5 hours of weekly exercise along with medication, can significantly improve quality of life for people living with Parkinson's. We run and will continue to run for people with Parkinson's because this disease not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Every dollar counts, thank you for your support!
