The Story

Before he got sick, Mason used to ride his bike next to JJ as she ran. He used to ask, “Mama, when can I run the marathon with you?”

JJ’s answer was always, “When you are 16 you can run the LA Marathon with me.”

In 2026 Mason would have turned 16 years old. So we called our first marathon with Not Today Cancer “Mason’s Marathon”. We ran it with him alongside us.

We do this to raise money for childhood cancer research, to support every child out there like Mason.

And this year we’d like you to join us.
