I have chosen to run for Dragon Master Initiative because everyone I know knows someone who has had cancer...I am that someone. This year marks 10 years since my diagnosis, and thank goodness, I'm still cancer-free. There are so many of my friends and family who have lost grandparents, parents, sibings, spouses and children to cancer. My heart is heavy for anyone who has to battle this demon. It's time to make my miles count and run for a higher cause - fundraising for cancer research and hopefully, someday find a cure.
