When
Hi everyone thanks for visiting my Team Lemon home page!! I have decided to participate in the Chicago Marathon next Fall. This will be my first time running it and it is something I have always wanted to do. I am very excited I finally have the opportunity to do so! I will be joining with Team Lemon to help Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation move one step closer to finding a cure for all children with cancer! The money you donate will be put toward research to find better treatments and cures for childhood cancer. I just learned about the organization this year, but their goal is something that is very close to my heart. Last September a good friend of mine named Bryan Jardinico lost his battle to brain cancer. Bryan had a long and hard battle, and he was so brave throughout it all. He was always seen with a smile on his face and known for his love of electronics. Bryan chose the quality of his life over quantity and this is something I will never forget. To this day Bryan still inspires me, and I chose to run for this charity in hopes of helping other kids like Bryan going through the same battle. Although Bryans life was cut short, I'd like to think of this as a small act I can do for him since he brought so much happiness into others' lives.
Another inspiration of mine to run the marathon is my mom. She just finished her second marathon this fall and I could not be more proud. I really enjoy running with her and I am hoping we are able to do this marathon together next year! Any donations would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!
