Why I’m Running My Second Half Marathon With Team Sharsheret

Stephen Gordon

This will be my second NYC half and the second time I am running for an incredible cause in memory of an incredible woman.

I am once again inspired to undertake this rigorous challenge as I am racing in the memory of one my heroes, my dear mother-in-law Arlene Pinkus in support of Sharsheret an amazing non-for-profit organization supporting young women and families of all Jewish backgrounds facing breast and ovarian cancer at every stage – before during and after diagnosis.

Arlene was a survivor of both breast and ovarian cancer which makes it even more meaningful for me to race on behalf of Sharsheret because of the support they have provided to young women who were touched by both of these horrible diseases.
