If you would like to run in honor of Star Kohlson, you will select his team when registering and your team neck gaiter color is GRAY. Here's Kohlson's story.

Kohlson Edwards was born on January 23rd, 2016. He recently celebrated his 4th birthday with all his family and friends. 

After the removal of a cancerous brain tumor known as Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor (AT/RT) on February 13th, 2017, and 6 months of high dose chemotherapy, Kohlson rang the victory bell on July 31st, 2017 at Nationwide Children's Hospital. One month after chemotherapy was completed, Kohlson traveled to Chicago to receive Proton Radiation for 6 weeks. He finished all treatments on October 11th, 2017. Kohlson is still continuing his many therapies of PT, OT, and speech and is getting stronger day by day. 

Kohlson has follow-up MRIs of his brain, spine, and kidneys every 4 months. So far, they have all been tumor and cancer free! Even though he has and still is going through a lot in his young life, his family and friends are so grateful to have him doing so well and are so humbled by all the support the community has shown.
