Over the last 5 months, I've been training to participate in the LA Marathon (a first), which is taking place Sunday, March 17th. I've decided to join the UCLA Johnson Cancer Center Foundation, Team JCCF, to raise funds to support the vital efforts they take on with respect to cancer research, education, and community outreach. It would be an incredible honor to have your support and share this experience together.
