“When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing, then we truly live life”
This race is for you Jin
I was blessed with the chance to meet you at work a few years ago and since then you have always been a great joy to be around. It came as such a shock initially when you told me the news that they had found a tumor on your brain stem. Throughout everything you have never stopped fighting and your hope in God has never waivered one bit. I’m so humbled to be called your friend and I can only wish one day to blessed with the strength that you have. As your fight continues you have inspired me to race to save lives!
”In every work the beginning is the most important part,especially in dealing with anything young and tender.”
Today, it is estimated that one in every 110 children is diagnosed with autism, making it more common than childhood cancer. I have had the privilege of working in the autism field for over 5 years. These kids are a bright endearing part of my life. They also deserve my best effort, so I would love to dedicate this race to raise autism awareness as well.
