Why I run for Team Fired Up

This January marks my second year taking on the Dopey Challenge—a test of endurance that involves running a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and full marathon on consecutive days. I never thought that I'd be able to run a full marathon, let alone 48.6 miles in one weekend. I also never thought that I'd want to do it a second time. I'm proud to say that I'm running this again and in support of a wonderful organization that's making a huge difference in the world.

Why the Dragon Master Initiative? Last year, I ran for the Dragon Master Initiative, and their mission resonated deeply with me. This nonprofit organization is rewriting the rules of medical research by fostering collaboration and connectivity among treatment centers.

How They’re Changing the Game:

  • Data Sharing Revolution: The Dragon Master Initiative connects hospitals nationwide, breaking down silos. They’re creating a seamless network where quality research data flows freely. Imagine doctors and scientists sharing insights across borders, accelerating progress.
  • Speeding Up Trials: By streamlining data access, they’re slashing the time it takes for clinical trials. Faster trials mean quicker breakthroughs in detection and treatment methods.
  • Pediatric Brain Cancer Focus: Their initial mission centers on pediatric brain cancer, but their ripple effect extends far beyond. Patients with rare cancers and diseases will benefit from their groundbreaking work.

Join me in supporting the Dragon Master Initiative for the second year. Let’s turn every stride into hope, every mile into progress. Learn more at www.dragonmaster.org. Together, we’ll run toward a future where cancer has been tamed. 

If you are able, please help me reach my goal of raising $3000 for the Dragon Master Foundation to help cure cancer!
