My Story…
I am running the Falmouth Road Race on behalf of One Summit, in support of the thousands of young people who are battling childhood cancer and in memory of my friend, Jack Lynch. Jack was my first friend when I moved into a new neighborhood at 5 and he was the best. Younger than me by a year, we became fast friends and set out on a summer full of adventure… but even as a young boy, I could tell he was sick. Jack had been diagnosed with stage 4 Neuroblastoma two years before. He had his good days and his bad days, but he was always happy. Jack always had a smile ear-to-ear and mischief in his eyes, and for a year and a half he was my best friend. When he lost his battle at the age of 5 it was terrible, but I always admired how the Lynches focused on the good in life and forged forward day after day. One Summit talks a lot about resiliency, I like that. For them, it has never been about making good out of bad, it’s remembering the good… and focusing on that. The Lynches remember Jack by continuing to celebrate his life in their lives and through their own actions. Today, I am celebrating Jack and ask that you please consider donating as I run for One Summit on August 18th. Thank you!
Description
I couldn't be more excited to be part of Team One Summit. The task of running a race may seem daunting but pales in comparison to those suffering from pediatric cancer. It's an honor to participate in this year's Falmouth Road Race in support of One Summit - a nonprofit with a mission of building resilience in kids battling cancer through experiential learning and mentorship with U.S. Navy SEALs.
It is my goal to raise over $1,500! Hope you'll consider supporting my efforts by donating today!
