When Lacey was 28 she was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and that became her go big or go home moment. Instead of letting her diagnoses win, she decided to start running. She's now trained through her treatments for her first half marathon, 50km, 50mile, and most recently a 100km! Lacey is one badass runner.
