A Message From Jenice Reyes

I'm honored to run the 2024 Bank of America Chicago Marathon with Team Gilda for a second year. I'm dedicating the 26.2 miles in honor of my Kuya (means “older brother” in Tagalog), who fought Stage IV colon cancer like a true warrior. Like a runner, he followed a plan provided by his team of doctors and his husband, family, and friends were his biggest supporters along his cancer journey. With courage, resilience, and determination, he fought hard to continue to live the best life. On 4.22.2024, he passed away and left us with the brightest light and memories. It is important for me to raise money for Gilda's Club of Chicago for Kuya as well as patients with cancer and their encouraging loved ones. Thank you for your support and donation!
