This year's race dedicated to: Dave
This year's race is dedicated to Dave, AKA, our Race Director's dad! Dave was the reason this race was founded 16 years ago. Dave was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and was going through treatment.
During this whole process his daughter felt helpless. So she started running and fundraising for Team In Training, and The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. She ran her first marathon with Team in Training and never looked back. She fundraised season after season. In 2008, when the economy tanked, she got laid off from her job. She had some time on her hands and thought, "Hey, let me organize a race for my fundraiser. How hard could it be!?" Thus was born Run Scared.
Dave has participated in almost all of the years of Run Scared, often times dressed as what he thinks is the scariest thing out there, an attorney. Yes, he is an attorney himself.
