RUNNING FOR BRAINS
A 26.2 Mile Mission to Protect More Brains
Ten years ago, I underwent emergency brain surgery after a traumatic brain injury that changed everything. There were moments I didn’t know what healing would look like, or who I would become on the other side of it.
This year, I’m stepping to the starting line not just for myself, but for every person navigating life after brain injury.
Running for Brains is about resilience. It’s about protection. It’s about showing that healing is possible and that our stories don’t end at injury.
Where Are Your Dollars Going?
Every mile I run fuels real protection.
Your support helps:
🧠 Put helmets on kids through Happy Helmets
🎓 Fund hands-on brain education through The Brain Factory
🎙️ Break the stigma through the Save A Brain HQ Podcast
💛 Expand access to brain health resources and awareness
$25 = 1 helmet for a child.
$100 = 4 kids protected.
Every donation moves us forward — mile by mile.

26.2 Miles. $26,000. One Mission.
Every mile we run on June 20th represents more than distance… it represents protection.
Our goal is to raise $26,000 — $1,000 for every mile of the marathon.
That funding will:
• Put helmets on kids through Happy Helmets
• Expand hands-on brain education through The Brain Factory
• Break stigma through the Save A Brain HQ Podcast
$25 protects one child.
$100 protects four.
$1,000 powers an entire mile of this mission.
Every donor becomes part of this 26.2-mile story.
We’ll be sharing our mile sponsors, impact updates, and race-day moments along the journey.
This isn’t just about finishing a race.
It’s about protecting more brains long after the finish line.
