Now it's easier to send Run Free T1D a message.

Type One Diabetes has been an ever present part of my life since 1994. It is my passion to prevent and cure others from facing the every day challenges seen each day with this silent disease.

This year I am running NYC Marathon with Team JDRF to educate others, interact with families affected by this disease, and raise funds to work towards advanced treatment options, and most importantly, a cure!

I have been living with type 1 diabetes for 25+ years. In my past fundraising years, I have always participated in the local chapter’s JDRF Walk to cure diabetes. But this year, I decided a change of pace [literally] was on the horizon.... I did the math:

My desire to advance T1D treatments + my personal connection + my running habit = Running with Team JDRF @ TSC NYC Marathon 2020!

I have a passion to help fund the research necessary to make T1D more easily manageable, and ultimately I am eager to find a cure. I understand first-hand the ups and downs of running and blood sugars, so that is why I decided that this year I wanted to run for a cure [instead of walk].

I have joined Team JDRF to raise funds for the millions of people living with and affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D). The money I raise will help JDRF fund critical research to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people's lives until no one has to fear developing the disease.

Type 1 diabetes is a life-threatening autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas stops producing insulin—a hormone essential to the ability to get energy from food. It strikes both children and adults suddenly and changes life as they know it forever. It cannot be prevented and there is no cure.

JDRF is the largest nongovernmental funder of T1D research and the only global organization with a strategic research plan to fight T1D. This science is complex and costly, and every dollar JDRF is able to direct toward research comes from donors like you.

Please support me and donate to my fundraising campaign. Your gift will make a difference for millions of people affected by this devastating, life-threatening disease. Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as possible today?

Thank you for your support!
