Why I support St. Jude:

I have chose to run in honor of two very special St Jude kids this year!  

I run for Karly Rathbun, who is a beautiful, strong 15 year old young lady who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at age 12.  I work and have became great friends with her mom. Karly has written and illustrated her own book about her journey! 

I run for Kacer Holloway, who is an 11 year old in remission from wilms tumor.  He is known for his good effort in class and ever-changing hairstyles, but an even greater love for P.E. games, fishing, and hunting.  I have come to know his family through church and running with Team Chillicothe over the last few years.

I choose to run and with the mission to raise money for the kids and families like these two amazing individuals because St Jude is about finding cures and saving the lives of these children.  It weighs heavy on my heart that although the survival rate has improved it is not yet 100%.  I will continue to run and fight to get it there.  Please consider donating! Every dollar counts :)
