I'm Making My Miles More Meaningful with Team DetermiNation!
Running has always been something I love. It’s challenged me, given me confidence, and reminded me that we’re capable of more than we think.
In November, my perspective on running changed when my mom was diagnosed with cancer. Suddenly, every mile meant something more. I realized that while I can choose to push through difficult runs, so many people are forced to face battles they never asked for.
I’m running to support the American Cancer Society because I want to be part of a future where no one has to hear the words, “You have cancer.” Every donation helps fund lifesaving research, improve treatments, provide support for patients and families, and bring us closer to preventing and ending this disease.
I’m running for my mom, for every family affected by cancer, and for the hope that one day no one else’s mom, dad, sibling, friend, or loved one has to endure this journey.
If you’re able, I’d be so grateful for your support. Every contribution—no matter the size—helps make a difference. Thank you for helping turn every mile into hope.
Description
Why I Support the American Cancer Society
Cancer has affected so many people I know and love that it’s inspired me to join the American Cancer Society's Team DetermiNation's 2026 ASICS Falmouth Road Race team. Taking part in this iconic and historical road race with DetermiNation gives me the chance to make a difference and honor those touched by cancer by raising funds for groundbreaking research and impactful services for people going through a cancer diagnosis. I’m also participating to inspire hope for those facing the disease. I hope you’ll consider signing up too or supporting my efforts.
Funds raised support cancer patient programs and groundbreaking research that can help save lives. This event also celebrates over 18.1 million cancer survivors nationwide. 18.1 MILLION. That’s huge. That’s why I’d love your support. Will you join me? And if you can’t would you be so kind as to make a donation?
