Last year was my first marathon, and I was eager to race again this year. Living with a spinal cord injury, I understand the need for a cure for SCI.  

Hometown:  Chicago, IL
Time Goal:  (4 hours) or beat my time last year!

Unite 2 Fight Paralysis and Spinal Cord Injury Sucks are proud to partner again this year as an official charity team for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Team SCIS/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 $73,000 in the past two years. All funds directly support our mission: to cure paralysis through advocacy, education, and support for research. Thank you for your support!
