Running
for a Reason
|

“Completing a half or full marathon is a tremendous accomplishment and participating in honor or memory of a loved one with cancer makes the experience especially meaningful.” Pat
Hogan, Friends of CanCare and Lifetime Director, |

Pat Hogan,
captain of Team CanCare, has been a survivor of
lung cancer since 1982. She recruits many runners and walkers
for Team CanCare.

Friends and supporters of CanCare raise money for our cause by running or walking in the annual Houston marathon and related races held every year in January. Members of Team CanCare raise monetary pledges from friends and relatives for their efforts. In return, the participants find that Running for a Reason helps them make it to the finish line when their energy begins to ebb. The participants also enjoy the camaraderie of team members by receiving a t-shirt, a series of Team CanCare newsletters, an opportunity to have their own website and attending a victory party held after the marathon. |
