In honor of my grandma, Jane Bronke, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's around 2010 and passed away in 2016, I am running the 2022 Chicago Marathon with ALZ Stars! My grandma had a large impact on me, my family and countless others and I know she would be on the race course cheering me on if she was still with us.

By participating in this event, I've committed to raising awareness and funds to advance the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association.​

Currently, more than 6 million Americans have Alzheimer's disease and that number is expected to grow to nearly 13 million by 2050. Our future is at risk and we must come together to change the course of this disease.

Please support my efforts by making a donation. All funds raised benefit  the Alzheimer's Association and its work to enhance care and support programs and advance research toward methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure for Alzheimer's disease.  Thank you for joining the fight against Alzheimer’s disease!
