Dear Linked In Friends and Colleagues,
Many of you are aware of my battle with Prostate Cancer over the past 9 years; Radical Prostatectomy, Radiation, Chemotherapy and Hormone Therapy, and all of the side effects that go along with these treatments (feel free to contact me if you want additional information).
Throughout it all, I have tried to keep a positive attitude. Having a support system, including many of you, has been invaluable during this journey. I have also tried to not let it affect my lifestyle; competing in a variety of sports and running my business.
Prior to the pandemic I participated in a 5K for Prostate awareness on Father’s Day as a member of someone else’s team. It was fun and rewarding, and our team had the most participants, raised the most money as a team, and we also had some of the fastest runners in the event. After that event, I vowed to come back with my own team, and take over as the top team. I may be a little competitive, but this is how we help raise $$ and awareness.
The past two years, with your help, I have put together a SUPER TEAM, “I _______ with Kap,” and we have had the largest team, raised the most $$ and certainly had the most fun.
I am inviting ALL of you to join or donate to our 2024 team. Our goal is to always have the most participants, raise the most amount of money and have the fastest team.
Even if you do not live in Atlanta, you can still participate. Please go to this website https://www.run4dad.org/
and register as a runner, walker, snoozer or virtual runner or just DONATE.
We only have a couple week to accomplish these lofty goals, but with your help, I know we can do it. Register, Donate and invite everyone you know to participate.
The statistics speak for themselves. One in seven men will encounter prostate cancer in their lifetime. Every 20 minutes a man we love loses his life to prostate cancer.
By generating greater awareness and education about prostate cancer, we can change these statistics. Early detection can save lives.
We look forward to watching Wendy cross the finish line in August! 💚
