When I saw another blogger document the 5k she ran to help raise funds for
Kyle O’Connor‘s expensive cancer treatment costs I knew I had to get involved.
Reading Lisa’s beautifully written story on the struggle the entire O’Connor family
has been enduring was eye-opening and instantly brought tears to my eyes.
I quickly posted on Facebook encouraging my friends join me in completing a
virtual 5k with me (it can even be done on a treadmill at the gym.)
My coworkers that I workout with during lunchtime quickly jumped on board
after my plea via email and we’re going to be running together .
Now I am reaching out on here, if any of you have the 25 – 45 minutes (depending on
how speedy you may be) it will take to complete please let me know in a comment
below or contact me privately.

I will be posting photos at the conclusion of our races (wearing my bib proudly)
and it would mean a great deal if others would join me.
No child should have to fight cancer and no parent should have to worry about
financial strains on top of having such a sick child.
Let’s help them out, please.
