Team Captain
Meet Lisa Quinn

The Rock 'n' Roll Virginia Beach Half Marathon is one of Lisa Quinn's favorite events. In addition to being the NFE team captain for Virginia Beach, Lisa also leads the NFE Pocono Run for the Red Team.

RuNFor Meadow
Lisa runs for her daughter, Meadow, pictured above. Meadow is still tube fed 10 hours each night. Meadow has a new tumor growing at the
base of her spine, and
she will be getting another MRI soon. The next step will be to see a tumor surgeon. Meadow has also been having pain in her right arm, which may indicate tumor growth. Despite some serious challenges this year, Meadow has started playing indoor soccer. And, yes, she is still rocking out to Linkin Park.

To read more about Lisa and Meadow,
visit "Mom on the Run."





RuNFor Mia
Mia is three years old and has NF1. Mia has two brain tumors, optic gliomas, with one on each optic nerve. These tumors occur in less than five percent of NF kids, but they are usually only present on one optic nerve.

Read more about Mia's story.


Mia is one of our 'NF Heroes' for this event. For those who do not have an 'NF touch,' you may use this inspiring family story along with the photo as a part of your fundraising campaign; it helps to personalize the message.

To read more about our reasons to run, please visit our Hero spot on the Web site. You can submit your hero's story here.
