In 2005 my grandfather lost his courageous battle with ALS. From that moment my family and I committed ourselves to honoring his memory and helping others who face this devastating disease. Over the years we have run nearly ten marathons together, raising awareness and supporting organizations dedicated to ALS research and to improving the lives of those affected.

Now it?s my turn once again. I am training for my second major world marathon, running in honor of my grandfather and in solidarity with everyone who is living with ALS today. Each mile is a reminder of his strength and of the urgent need to find better treatments and, one day, a cure.

This cause is deeply personal to me and to my family. Your encouragement and generosity mean more than words can express. Whether through a donation, sharing this page, or simply cheering from afar, you are helping to bring hope and progress to the ALS community.

Thank you for standing with us and for making every step of this journey matter.
