Story

Over 100,000 people are newly diagnosed with Melanoma annually. That adds up to A LOT over even just a few years, impacting many people close to me, as 3 of my family members and one of my close friends have had skin cancer at some point. I’m running the Philadelphia Marathon to push myself to my physical limits and push myself out of my comfort zone, and being able to benefit a foundation that hits so close to home for me. The research done by MRF has been and will continue to help find treatments and potential cures for this disease, which has benefitted so many.

I genuinely hope that this run will help make a difference to those struggling with Melanoma currently, as 100% of these donations will go to the Melanoma Research Foundation. I hope you consider donating to this cause.

Thank you!
