My Story…

Hi friends! 

I am running my first half marathon on May 4th, 2025, not just for myself, but for someone who embodies strength, resilience, and unwavering courage: my mom, Myra Apeles. For the past 2.5 years, she has been bravely battling breast cancer, showing me every day what it means to fight with grace and determination. 

Her journey has been both challenging and inspiring, and through this run, I want to honour her incredible strength. I am dedicating this race to her and raising funds for the BC Cancer Foundation.

Every step I take will be for her, and for those who continue to fight. If you can, every donation, no matter the amount, makes a meaningful difference. Your support means the world to me, my family, and anyone going through this.

- Julia ♡
