Why?  On October 5, 2020, Dan lost his battle with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a rare and fatal brain disease. Prion diseases are a group of rare, invariably fatal brain disorders which occur both in humans and certain animals. In humans the best known of the prion diseases is CJD, which reportedly affects around one person per million per population per year. Most of the cases are "sporadic" CJD (sCJD), occurring for no known reason. There is currently no cure for CJD. Please run with us to celebrate Dan and help raise awareness!  We welcome you to make a donation to the Creutzfeldt-Jakob Foundation. With your help, this Foundation can continue its mission to be available for every family who seeks support, whether by providing information, offering a referral for a second opinion, or supporting research aimed at finding a treatment and a cure for this terrible category of diseases.
