2026 Chicago Marathon

I never would have thought that running the Chicago Marathon would be a dream of mine, but here we are! So what better way to fulfill that dream than by running it for such an amazing organization? I have seen the incredible impact LIVE LIKE ROO has on families whose dogs have unfortunately received cancer diagnoses, and I am honored to represent such an inspiring cause. Although I am not in the field of veterinary medicine, I am a Physician Assistant, and I understand the impact a cancer diagnosis can have on both the patient and their loved ones. I am passionate about medicine, and as a dog lover, I feel honored to represent LIVE LIKE ROO in the 2026 Chicago Marathon!
