Christopher Whitney's Story

It has been the honor of my life to represent the mission and the people of MS Run the US since 2020! As a previous relay runner in 2021 and 2023, I figured...let's go for it again and I have the great honor of being selected for a segment in 2026. It's not just any segment, it's Segment 11 from Holdrege, NE to Lincoln, NE. This year's relay carries special meaning for me as I will get to finish in my home town of Lincoln and where I work, taking part in a special event that is well supported in Nebraska. I run for my mom Joyce, who has had MS since 1988 and for my friend Kevin, who continues to battle MS after being diagnosed in 2018. I am also running for the relay teammates I've had, the others that have run for the organization and the caregivers like my brother Justin, who is an absolute rock to take care of mom, and in honor of my dad Michael, who passed away in September 2024. Why run again? Because our job isn't done. MS continues to affect millions of people worldwide and while great progress has been made, we're still going and won't stop for those that have MS and for those affected by it. Let's keep making a difference and END MS.
