UPDATE: 21 Miles in May Achieved!
RUNX1-FPD is caused by a mutation in the RUNX1 gene, located on chromosome 21. This hereditary mutation makes an individual 30 times more likely to develop blood cancer in their lifetime than you or me.
In honor of those who have this rare disease, and to raise awareness about how RUNX1-FPD could help scientists develop cancer prevention treatments, please support my effort to run 21 miles total in the month of May with a donation of $21.
