Welcome to my 2023 ASICS Falmouth Road Race Page!
I am thrilled to be a part of the Gray Nation Endurance Team again this year and to be running the 2023 ASICS Falmouth Road Race on August 20th in support of the National Brain Tumor Society. I will be running in memory of my father, Dr. Kevin Gebert, who died of GBM in 2019.
Glioblastoma multiforme, or GBM, is a fast-growing and extremely aggressive type of malignant brain tumor. A GBM diagnosis is particularly devastating because there is no cure. Most patients only live for 12-15 months after being diagnosed.
The National Brain Tumor Society is working to change this narrative by funding critical research into the treatment of GBM; we now know more than ever how glioblastoma evolve — and, more importantly, what vulnerabilities exist that can be attacked with novel treatments.
What the NBTS is doing is so important. Every donation made is a step toward a cure.
Last year, with the help of my family, friends, my Dad’s friends & colleagues and some caring strangers, I was able to reach and surpass my fundraising goal. I know we can do it again!
I can’t wait to get back to Falmouth and to run my heart out for the NBTS <3
Thank you for your consideration in supporting the National Brain Tumor Society in memory of my Dad.
He would be so proud!
