Many years ago I ran this 5k for The Kern County Cancer Foundation just for the fun of it…. ..
Never in my mind did I ever think that I would end of benefiting from this amazing foundation. This race was deeply personal for me 🎀
This local nonprofit helps people in our community who are fighting cancer-of any kind- by providing help with groceries, gas cards, transportation to treatment, financial assistance with medical bills, copays, deductibles, and as a resource center. KCCF certainly helped me while I was not working and receiving treatment for breast cancer.
It was an HONOR to run this 5k as a survivor and to help raise awareness and support for their foundation. It was also an HONOR to have my kids and sister run the 5k with me. I am so proud of my sister Cristina and my daughter Karina because this was their official first 5k race.
They all did great and we had fun!
