Running for Nancy Swift– In Memory of My Wife

On August 17th, I will be running the Falmouth Road Race with a heavy heart and a determined spirit. I’m running in honor of my beloved wife, who passed away far too soon at the age of 46 after a courageous battle with breast cancer. She was not only the love of my life, but the devoted mother of our daughters, who now face the world without her warmth, guidance, and love.

Every mile I run is for her—and for every family who has experienced the heartbreak of losing someone to this devastating disease.

This year, I am running to raise funds for the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC)—an organization that is near and dear to my heart. MBCC is unique in its mission: it focuses on the environmental causes of breast cancer, with the goal of preventing this disease before it starts. Their work in research, education, and advocacy is helping to create a future where fewer families have to face what mine has gone through.

No husband should have to say goodbye to his wife so early. No daughter should have to grow up without her mother.

I run so that one day, they won’t have to.

Please consider supporting my run and donating to this important cause. Every contribution brings us one step closer to a world where breast cancer can be prevented—and families can stay whole.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
