Along with 3,000 other people including Lance Armstrong, Dr. Will Kuo participated in the San Jose LiveStrong Challenge on Sunday, July 13th. Participants biked, ran, or walked 10 to 100 miles on a course beginning in downtown San Jose continuing to Coyote Valley and looping back through the east foothills. Entrants completed the course not only to raise money for the Lance Armstrong Foundation ($1.5 million to be exact), but to honor those who struggle and have struggled with cancer. A recent San Jose Mercury News article, "Cancer Only Loser in LiveStrong Race" by Sharon Noguchi, highlighted Dr. Kuo's efforts to honor his patients: "For health care providers as well, the race offered a salve and a sense of helping to ease the suffering caused by cancer, which afflicts 12 million Americans. William Kuo, a Stanford Hospital radiologist, bicycled with a card honoring his patients." To read the full article, please click here: "Cancer Only Loser in LiveStrong Race."
