When last year's nycmarathon was cancelled, it didn't stop April Bynum from running to support cancer research. “I run to fight cancer. A marathon cancellation isn’t going to stop cancer, so why should it stop me?” Running a marathon wasn’t enough for April; she wanted to run a marathon squared, 687.42 miles! And she passionately raised funds for cancer research while she ran. Cancer research is extremely important to April and her family because it brings hope for better cancer prevention, detection and treatments. She runs so one day no one will experience the pain and suffering she and her sister have witnessed through so much loss. #DontEverGiveUp
