I am a runner that likes to use my feet to help others. For the year 2023 I will be running to bring awareness to 11 different cancers and fundraising for each of those 11.

The reason for choosing cancer as my 2023 running theme comes from the loss of a dear friend.  She did not suffer from Lung Cancer, but from Cholangiocarcinoma.  Because she was always trying to help others and bring happiness, even in her most painful days, I want to honor her by doing my best in helping those that are newly diagnosed, getting treatment, or those that have lost family and friends.

I chose to work with this specific Lung Cancer Foundation because they have and amazing team.  The enthusiasm and care that this team has had with me in this 2023 project shows me how much heart they have in making sure that Lung Cancer patients are getting what they need.

My connection with Lung Cancer may be nonexistent, but my need to end suffering is what drives me.

Keep up with me on my socials (Instagram @goobery_nerd and TikTok @yourbiggestfanrunning). That is where you can find all the fun races I'll be running for each of the cancers.

My Perfect Marathon is an opportunity to run my perfect race wherever and whenever I choose, while honoring those impacted by lung cancer. With all of us so aware of the importance of healthy lungs these days, supporting this vulnerable population is more important than ever!

Help me support GO2 for Lung Cancer by making a contribution to my fundraiser and sharing this page with your family and friends. The funds I raise will advance their mission to transform survivorship by improving the lives of those vulnerable, at risk, and diagnosed with lung cancer. 

You can also join my Cheer Squad on event day, if you are in the area. Help me transform survivorship and save lives.
