Today we run for Michaela Inman and Mackenzy Renee
Michaela is a 13 year old child, diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma on 12/12/11. She completed chemotherapy and limb salvage surgery treatment 11/8/12. She was a very active child, thriving in competitive sports and liked long distance running prior to her diagnosis. Currently she is working towards regaining her strength, and working towards raising funds for CureSearch, and local childhood cancer programs. She hopes to regin the ability to run again soon. She was told she would never be able to run a marathon. Her response to her surgeon was, “Ok, then I will run 26.1 miles someday!”. She received her treatment at Blank Children’s Hospital in Des Moines, and The University of Iowa Children’s Hospital in Iowa City. She has teamed up with the local organization BeatCancerToday.org and her middle school to locally kick off a childhood cancer awareness and fundraising campaign.

In her family’s words: “Michaela is our inspiration. We are humbled and honored in what Landon is doing for the same cause we hold so close to our hearts! We will be there to cheer him on as he passes through Des Moines!”
