Other reasons for my running.....

Why did I choose the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society?

1st In Honour of my Mother!  My mom Jocelyne Brisson has Lymphoma and was diagnosed 3+ years ago and I am doing it in Her Honour!
 
2nd I run in her Memory Zia Anna-Maria Mydad Ermanno gave his bone marrow to his sister, my aunt Anna-Maria,  to help her treat her leukemia, she was in remission for over 5 years but unfortunately her blood cancer returned and she passed away....
 
3rd I will be 40 soon and I wanted to do something out of my comfort zone!

4th I have been toying with the idea of running for a while now after years....many of the patients are runers and they have inspired me with their stories!
5th be more physically active!
 
6th have fun while fundraising for a great cause and help find a cure!
