Welcome to my 2026 Team Lifeline page!

This year marks my third year running with Team Lifeline, and I'm incredibly proud to dedicate this race to the memory of my dear Uncle Chaim (לעילוי נשמת חיים דוב בן שלום). Last year, I ran in honor of my beloved grandparents, and now it's his turn to inspire my steps.

His name 'Chaim', meaning 'life' in Hebrew, has the same root as the word 'Chai' in Chai Lifeline which is the incredible organization Ill be representing this year. Chai Lifeline brings life to those in need, and that perfectly encapsulated who my uncle was. He was a beacon of positivity and happiness, always radiating joy with every step he took. He was someone who brought us all together, ensuring our family bonds stayed strong – especially through the many wonderful BBQs he organized throughout the year. Family was truly one of the most important things to him and I am proud to have had him in my life as a positive role model for so many wonderful years.

This year, as I run, I'll be channeling his incredible spirit and keeping his memory vibrantly alive. All funds raised through this campaign will be in his memory, a testament to the beautiful life he lived and a way to elevate his memory.

Thank you for being here, and thank you for your support in honoring such a special person, we can do great things together!
