Run For Their Lives
"Run For Their Lives" - 6 Marathons. 9 Weeks. One Mission.
In 2017, I was smoking two packs a day and could barely climb a flight of stairs without struggling to breathe.
Then I started running.
A shaky three-minute run became a half marathon. Then a marathon. By the end of 2026, I will have completed 30 marathons including 10 in one year, across three continents.
But this time, I’m not running for a personal finish line.
I’m running for people fighting cancer.
From October 18 to December 20, 2026, I will take on 6 marathons in 9 weeks; Amsterdam, Tirana, New York City, Verona, Beirut and Pisa to raise $60,000 for the Barbara Nassar Association in Lebanon.
Through Run For Their Lives, we aim to raise $60,000 for the Barbara Nassar Association, helping cancer patients in Lebanon access essential supportive care that addresses the physical, psychological, emotional, and practical challenges of cancer including psychological support, physical rehabilitation, nutritional guidance, mental health and wellbeing services, screening, patient support, and other services that help patients cope with cancer and maintain their quality of life.
Because cancer patients don’t get to choose the race they’re running.
I chose to put my body through 6 marathons in 9 weeks.
They didn’t choose theirs.
Your donation can help turn every kilometer into something meaningful: a counseling session, a physiotherapy session, nutritional support, screening, or simply a moment when a cancer patient knows they are not alone.
$10. $50. $100. Every contribution can make a difference.
I reached my finish line… Now, let’s help them reach theirs.
Donate. Share. Run with us.
Every kilometer for someone fighting cancer.
Every contribution for someone who needs support.
