OUR FINISH LINE SAYS ALS DONE!
Hi friends & family,
I am very excited to run the Falmouth Road Race this August for the ALS ONE team.
As some of you know, my dad was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) in March.
ALS is a progressive, neurodegenerative disease. It affects a person's ability to control the muscles that are needed to move, speak, eat and breathe. There is no known cure; however:
ALS is not an incurable disease. It is an underfunded one.
My dad and I have run the Falmouth Road Race twice together. I am hopeful that the ALS ONE team will raise enough funds to go towards research to find a cure so that my dad can run this race with me again.
Thank you for your consideration!
Abby
