Childhood Cancer Foundation (CHOC)

Personal Message:

I want to run for the Childhood Cancer Foundation again because the kids facing battles bigger than any ultra-marathon have stayed with me. Their resilience and courage inspire me every day, and I decided that running the 2025 Comrades Marathon could be more than a personal challenge—it could be a way to honor them. I want to dedicate each grueling kilometer to these kids, raising awareness and funds to give them a better chance at life. Running for them, I know, will turn even the hardest steps into a journey filled with meaning and purpose.
