My Story…
This year, I’m running my first marathon to support the ALS Society of BC, an organization dedicated to funding ALS research and providing essential support for people living with ALS.
This cause is deeply personal to me. I’m dedicating this race to a dear friend and mentor who is living with ALS. Their courage and resilience inspire me daily and I hope to honour their strength by taking on this challenge.
Your support can make a real difference. Together, we can help fund the research needed to develop strategies to mitigate the impacts of ALS and provide care for those affected by this disease. Every step I take is a step to support people with ALS. And you can be part of this journey!
I hope to raise at least $1 for every kilometre I run when training for this race, and I plan on running around 580km! Let’s do this together! 💪
