The Live Like Brent Foundation (LLBF) and the Penn Relays 5K have teamed up to take over Franklin Field at the University of Pennsylvania on November 4th, 2023. Named for the late, Brent P. Evans, a Philadelphia local and blood cancer warrior, the Live Like Brent Foundation challenges the world to live each day to the fullest, and live an impassioned life. Brent embodied this motto and brought out the best in everyone around him.

Unfortunately, in 2019 Brent lost his life to complications from his battle with Lymphoma. Today, the LLBF lives on in his memory and the memory of all lost to blood cancer. The foundation has partnered with UPenn Abramson Cancer Center to help blood cancer patients during the battle of their life!
