I'm Running 100 Miles for American Cancer Society

Cancer Sucks. Let's do our part.

Last month, an ad for ACS's April 100 Mile Fundraiser challenge popped up on my Instagram feed, and immediately, I was all in. As someone who's had a family member diagnosed with breast cancer (shoutout Ah Ma, 阿媽, my paternal grandma, who beat it too ❤️) and as someone with friends who have been deeply affected by it, I was inspired to take part in this virtual challenge and do my part in this ongoing battle. So for this month, I'm running 100 miles to help the American Cancer Society fight for a world without cancer.

I'm excited to apply myself in different ways to get engagement and donations for a really, really good cause that does really good work. I also want to push myself physically. I've never run 100 miles in a month, and I want my miles to mean something even more this April. I'm going to recruit some of my friends as well to join me in my miles to share in the mindful exercise of what this means and what it's for .

Feel free to follow me on Strava as I will be documenting my journey on there, as well as on Instagram, intermittently updating and finding creative ways to rally some donations. I've got some ideas

ACS has a platinum rating on GuideStar (the highest possible), so you can give with confidence! Please consider making a donation because every little bit helps. There's no such thing as a donation too small. (2 Corinthians 9:7) "Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." Thank you for your support!

See you on the road.
