OUR FINISH LINE SAYS ALS DONE!

My family has been running races to raise money for ALS research for over 15 years now. Starting in 2010, I have run the Sharon Timlin Memorial 5K to Cure ALS every year (this June will be my 16th run.) In 2016, the cause became more personal when my father was diagnosed with ALS and a year later when his sister was also diagnosed, the true gravity of the situation became apparent.

Running and ALS are inextricably linked for me.  I started running to raise money for ALS research and now I continue running to show myself that I can keep going for those who are no longer running with me.  It's always been a dream of mine to run the Falmouth Road Race and if there's one thing this disease shows over and over: there's no time like the present!

Description

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! This cause is very important to me. I’m running the ASICS Falmouth Road Race 2026 as part of team ALS ONE, supporting people living with ALS today through equipment, technology, and care resources. 

Funds raised for ALS ONE in partnership with ALS Network will benefit Massachusetts-based ALS research and care organizations, including our partners at the Healey Center for ALS at Massachusetts General Hospital, University of Massachusetts Medical School, ALS Therapy Development Institute, and Compassionate Care ALS. 

Please consider donating in honor of my effort as, together, we support this cause. No amount is too small!
