John's First Marathon!

(and hopefully not his last)

Welcome to my fundraising page! This fall I will be running the Bank of America Chicago Marathon to empower children diagnosed with cancer and their families. 

Team One Step supports Camp One Step by Children's Oncology Services, an organization that operates camps and other recreational and educational experiences for children who have been diagnosed with cancer.  These camps are provided to kids with cancer and their families for free, and they're inclusive and adaptive so everyone can join the fun. One Step Programs aim to cure the spirit by providing an environment of hope, strength, and empowerment. 

I hope you'll consider helping me help Camp One Step familes feel whole again!

Will I look as fresh coming up Columbus Drive after 26 miles as I did after 5?

Phones are so passé. Now my watch communicates my splits via Bluetooth directly to my cerebral cortex.

Seven years and about half a chin ago, I ran under dramatic Evanston skies.
