2024 Bank of America Chicago Marathon

Fulghum's Fight (GlioGang)

 

Welcome to our team page. We've formed this team because cancer has touched all of us in some way and we want to help curb it for others in the future. Consider joining our team or supporting us in any way! 

Cancer sucks. It's plain and simple. It takes young lives away, it generates physical, emotional and mental tolls on people. It can rob even the healthiest and strongest friends and family we have. As most of you know, Wyatt was diagnosed in October of 2018 with Stage 4 Glioblastoma (Brain Cancer). After a year of fighting and recovering, Wyatt and I ran the Marine Corps Marathon in 2019 and finished in under 5 hours - a true kick Cancer in the butt moment. Or in plain words, Wyatt told Cancer to "pound sand." He continued to fight the cancer battle and proved his doctors otherwise after beating the "months" life expectancy he had. Unfortunately, Wyatt passed peacefully in September of 2020 after almost 2 years of cherished memories alongside friends and family.

His memory lives on.

Wyatt and I had talked about Gliogang and GBM Journey - a way to raise awareness for the fight against Glioblastoma and Cancer. And now 5 years after his miraculous finish across the MCM finish line, we've put together a team to cross the Chicago Marathon finish line together in his honor.

The funds I'm raising will sustain critical research and provide services for people trying to cope with their cancer experience. Believe me, every dollar really does count, so I'm asking you to please donate any amount, big or small. If you can't donate - shoot me a text of encouragement or a memory of Wyatt - that alone will be fun to get through training. Together, we can make a big difference in the fight against cancer.

How Fundraising Impacts Your Community

Cancer hits far too close to home, so the funds you raise will help do the same. Through services and resources like free rides to chemo, free places to stay near hospitals, and a live 24/7 helpline, cancer patients and their families will feel the love. Here’s how recent money raised has been put to incredible uses.

As of January 2022, we have invested $400 M for potentially lifesaving cancer research grants.

We have received over 250,000 calls and chats from patients and caregivers seeking support in 2021

Cancer patients benefited from ACS transportation support through our Road TO Recovery program and transportation grants in 2021, with nearly 229,000 rides provided.

Cancer has touched all of us in some way. And we want to stop this disease in its tracks. We'll spend the next few weeks fundraising for the American Cancer Society. Then, on the day of the event, we'll honor the lives lost to cancer, celebrate survivors, and support the caregivers who so selflessly help others.  

Together, we'll be a part of making a difference in this important cause.
