My Story…
I am about to embark on a fantastic journey and I need your help! I feel super privileged and honored to run the Philadelphia Marathon which is 26.2 miles with a greater purpose and help find the AACR in their quest for new and innovative research to understand, prevent, and cure cancer, as they work to bring together the greatest minds in cancer science to defeat the cause.
Hello, my name is Teresina and at the age of 12, I knew I had the talent to excel at long distance running and participate in endurance events. All of my athletic achievements were accomplished by my military upbringing and the positive exposure to belief in oneself, dedication, sacrifices and hard work!
Who I am Running For: My college best friend April Salinas, who lost her battle to Melanoma Cancer in 2017. She lived her life to the fullest, never wasting a moment or missing an opportunity. She touched multiple people with her positivity and enthusiasm for life. She too also had a passion for endurance racing and for one thing, Cancer will never define her!
Who I am Running For: My two beautiful children Isaiah and Valencia and prove to them Anything is Possible!
Who I am Running For: Honor those who survived and fought against Cancer. Especially my father who beat Prostate Cancer.
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Your donation directs 88 cents of every dollar raised to support cancer research through grants, fellowships, scientific education, and information for cancer patients and their families!!!
Can't wait to celebrate with you all this November!!
