As Boston training has progressed, I've been trying to decide on the best way to keep people informed of my progress. Not having blogged before, I thought that it might be a bit daunting to set up a fancy little page, but like running Boston for the first time, I won't know til I try!
Over the coming weeks and months I'll post to this page at least 1x per week and perhaps more often, depending on how training is going and what milestones are being hit. The next 3 weeks provide plenty of great topics - a nice 16-mile run this weekend (probably in the snow), on January 28th I'm meeting my match in the Patient Partner Program through DFMC and the first weekend in Feb I'll be running with my sister Kim and her husband Todd as they both run and complete their first 1/2 marathons!
Thanks for visiting and for all the support!
Running in honor and support of Chris Davie and his family as Chris battles glioblastoma. Fundraising to support The Claudia Adams Barr Program for Innovative Cancer Research at Dana-Farber while training for my 7th Boston Marathon with DFMC. We have raised over $83,000 during my previous 6 years and aim to surpass $100,000 this year!
About Me
- chris
- My Goal: Run the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2019 with the Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge. Raise $17,000 (or more!) where 100% of funds raised benefit the Claudia Adams Barr Program in Innovative Basic Cancer Research. I run in honor of my friend Chris Davie who is battling brain cancer. I also run in honor for my friend RJ and his continued cancer-free life, in memory of Heather Thomson, and for other family and friends who are or have battled cancer. Together we can help Dana-Farber Cancer Institute reach the ultimate finish line: a world without cancer
