Story

(English Below)

Au cours des dernières années, le cancer a touché de près beaucoup de gens autour de moi — des amis, de la famille, des proches qui se battent encore aujourd’hui, et d’autres que nous avons malheureusement perdus.

Le 24 mai, je cours le marathon d’Ottawa (42,2 km).

Objectif : sous les 4h — mais surtout, une course bien gérée, la tête haute.

Je cours pour :

• célébrer les survivants

• soutenir ceux qui se battent

• honorer ceux qu’on n’oubliera jamais

Avec une pensée spéciale pour :

Francine Fortin Kyer (1952–2024)

André-Jean Richer (1935–2011)

Aline Richer (1935–2009)

Je les porterai avec moi sur chaque kilomètre.

Merci pour votre soutien ❤️

In recent years, cancer has affected many people around me — friends, family, loved ones who are still fighting, and others we have sadly lost.

On May 24th, I’m running the Ottawa Marathon (42.2 km).

Goal: sub-4 hours — but more importantly, a strong, well-managed race.

I run to:

• celebrate survivors

• support those fighting

• honor and remember those we’ve lost

With a special thought for:

Francine Fortin Kyer (1952–2024)

André-Jean Richer (1935–2011)

Aline Richer (1935–2009)

I’ll carry them through every kilometer.

Thank you for your support ❤️
