Sondra’s “story” began in December 1996, when her daughter, Michele Plachy-Rubin, was diagnosed with Glioblastoma Multiforme, a fast-growing and aggressive brain tumor. At the time, Michele was a young wife, mother, and kindergarten teacher in the Denver Public Schools.

Almost 500 runners and walkers participated in the 25th Annual Cancer League of Colorado Race for Research presented by the University of Colorado Cancer Center and UCHealth.
