THE STORY:

PRAYERS FROM MARIA FOUNDATION wrote -

For the 3rd year, The Prayers From Maria Foundation is encouraging runners participating in the Cleveland Marathon to join our team in an effort to find a cure for deadly childhood brain tumors known as gliomas. Our team name is the "Sunflower Striders" and our motto is "striding to ensure every child experiences life as a marathon". By fundraising for the Prayers From Maria Foundation you will help fund grants awarded to reputable research

Personally, in addition to knowing the family that started this amazing foundation and getting to see first hand what they went though and how they have turned it into something that changes lives for the better, two years ago I also lost my first cousin to a glioma.  He was just 22 years old.  The suffering he endured was just so horrendous.  I am dedicated to helping this foundation raise money for not only research, but also awareness so the suffering these kids and young adults go though will some day be a thing of the past.  Help me fund a cure! 

I will be thinking of Jimmy and Maria the whole way as I run.
