b'We\\u2019re less than a month away from the 2022 AACR Philadelphia Marathon. During the weekend of November 19-20 there will be marathon, half marathon and 8k - which is what I\'m running. I pledged to raise a thousand dollars for the American Association for Cancer Research the oldest and largest cancer research foundation funding scientists making the big breakthroughs in cancer cures. I\'m happy to say over the course of two days I\'m nearly there - just short 175 dollars away from my goal - so thank you! if you\'d like to contribute you can go to my Instagram @loraineballard. you can also contribute by going to www.aacr/org/runners for research.
p.s. an update. I\\u2019ve exceeded by goal raising $1025.00!!
