Description

In October 2015, Donald Bouquio was diagnosed with Stage 4 Small Cell Lung Cancer, the disease that claimed the life of his father in 1999.  Don is an avid runner and triathelete, having planned his first charity run in July of 2015, just 3 months before his grim diagnosis.  It is our hope to continue his legacy of giving by presenting the Just Breathe 5k & 10k.

While he and his family continue to battle this horrible disease, this run is being planned in his honor, with ALL PROCEEDS benefitting the Lung Cancer Alliance- a top rated non-profit organization that helps advocate for Lung Cancer patients and their grieving families and friends.

While the race is being presented virtually, there will be "Hot Spots" where runners can come together and enjoy the benefits of running as part of a group.  (Additional details released at a later date, please check back soon)
