I'm running for Team U2FP in support of individuals affected by spinal cord injury. This cause is particularly important to me because of my father, who was paralyzed with a spinal cord injury before I was born. Despite his injury, he was able to persevere and continued his career as a schoolteacher while raising a family of four children. His story is incredible, and has been an inspiration in my running and support of a cause benefiting spinal cord injury survivors. I'm excited to run the Chicago Marathon for the 5th straight year in support of this amazing cause!

Unite 2 Fight Paralysis is proud to be an official charity team for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon in 2018. Team U2FP is a group of passionate, hard working runners and wheelchair racers committed to racing the 26.2 miles and fundraising to advance research towards a cure for spinal cord injury.
The team raised over $105,000 in the past three years. All funds directly support our mission: to cure paralysis through advocacy, education, and support for research. Thank you for your support!
