Hi I'm Jacky for those new to my page. I'm an ultra runner based in Arizona. I'm currently running a minimum of 21km/13.1 miles everyday for those impacted by cancer. I'm on Day 207. Why? In August I was 21 years cancer free and not a day goes by that I'm not grateful for being alive. I wanted to celebrate that but also wanted to honor those who have either lost their lives, survived or who are currently fighting cancer. It is a way of showing those impacted by cancer that they are not alone. So everyday I've run for someone else. The names have been provided by loved ones either via my Google document I set up at the beginning of the project or via my messages.
If you have someone you'd like me to run for then message me. See images 2 and 3 for the names of those I've already ran for
I had Ewing Sarcoma for those curious. Had my leg amputated to save my life.
I'm also training for a few races while doing this challenge.
Boston Marathon in April
Comrades Ultramarathon in June.
