I'm Making My Miles More Meaningful with Team DetermiNation!

As many know I lost my mom this past January to cancer. She was diagnosed just 6 months prior. My mom was so excited to have recently retired and travel. She even bought herself a new bathing suit as incentive to get her travel on:) she never got the chance to pack up that bathing suit and go. She was robbed of so many things, but I refuse to let the spirit of my mom be one of those things. She lives on in my children and myself, I hear her in the songs of the wind chimes and the crashing of ocean waves. There is no loss like your mother. 


With that, I'm running the Falmouth road race a run I have done so many many times. My mom on the sidelines cheering. This year she will be cheering from the best seat in the house. I miss her so incredibly much, I know I can't stop cancer from affecting another family, I wish I could but I can't. What I can do is help raise money and hope that research brings us closer to a cure, finds new medications to bring comfort to those who need it. Please consider donating to my Falmouth road race, and for my mom's legacy.

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?
