I am running my first marathon to raise awareness and funds for the Danny Did Foundation, a nonprofit my brother started after his son Danny died suddenly after a seizure in his sleep. My nephew was a magnetic kid, and I carry so many good memories of him. I don't remember him for his seizures or his epilepsy or even his too short life. I remember his laugh, his ear-to-ear smiles, his happy personality, and the gift he was to us.

My goal is to raise $325 per mile. The Danny Did Foundation will use these funds to help protect other kids who face epilepsy, whose families can't afford the resources they need. Helping people all over the world is an incredible legacy for Danny, and his foundation has become my life's work. On behalf of the 1 in 26 people who will develop epilepsy, thank you for your support! I am proud to run with and for my little buddy.
