Follow me as I train for the 2009 Boston Marathon and raise money for Dana-Farber
About DFMC
The Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge (DFMC), enables people to run the Boston Marathon while raising money to benefit the Claudia Adams Barr Program in Innovative Basic Cancer Research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The DFMC directs 100% of funds raised to the Barr Program, which enables scientists at the leading edge of discovery to achieve better cure rates and to enhance patients' quality of life. DFMC took its first steps in 1990 as one of the inaugural organizations in the official B.A.A. Boston Marathon® charity program. In 19 years, the Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge has raised nearly $39 million for the Barr Program and its initiatives to better understand, treat, and, ultimately, cure cancer. The team aims to celebrate its 20th year by raising $4.85 million for the Barr Program.
