Description

Superheroes Needed!

This fun superhero themed 5K will benefit the Fanconi Anemia Research Fund.

Blake, Isaac and Avery have Fanconi anemia. Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare, inherited, cancer-prone disease that often leads to leukemia, bone marrow failure, and physical abnormalities, with an average lifespan of 33 years. Blake and Avery are both in bone marrow failure and will need a bone marrow transplant in the near future. Isaac recently had a successful bone marrow translplant at Seattle Children's Hospital. Even after a transplant, FA is not cured. They will still have FA and a much higher risk of certain cancers at an earlier age.
