This year's race dedicated to: Sarah
From Sarah (AKA Oscar the Grouch!):
Thank you for honoring me at this year's Run Scared. I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma--a cancer of the blood and bone marrow--20 years ago at the age of 22, and it changed my life's trajectory. After having completed chemo, radiation, and a stem cell transplant, today I live a full life while continuing to monitor for relapse. My diagnosis and treatment led me to go back to school and become a nurse which has been a wonderful career.
In my free time I love to read and spending time with my husband and 2 children outdoors. Since my diagnosis I have completed countless 5k runs (including a few Run Scared races!), multiple century bike rides, a 1/2 marathon, gone skydiving and traveled widely.
I am grateful to the Blood Cancer United (they also help multiple myeloma patients!) for their advocacy and aid, and I thank you all for supporting this event!
