SUPPORTING Breast and Ovarian Cancer Research

MDC 2026 - Half Marathon (21.1 KM)

Back at it for the Mother’s Day Classic 2026. This event has become a small tradition for me, mostly because it’s a good way to keep perspective.

A while back, my grandma—my Mama—showed us all what real resilience looks like when she beat cancer. Compared to that, 21.1km on a Sunday morning is just a bit of a long walk. I’m running the half-marathon again to celebrate her health and to help support the research that keeps families like ours together.

If you would like to donate a few dollars to the fundraiser, it would mean a lot. If not, just a 'good luck' is more than enough. Thanks for the support :)

Together the Mother’s Day Classic community has donated...

$48.23 million

Since 1998 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

$2.57 million

Since 2024 to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation
