Berlin Marathon Fundraiser for American Cancer Society

Join us in person for an awesome event supporting Greg Balkin's fundraising efforts for The American Cancer Society at the Berlin Marathon Fundraiser!

Featuring a hometown screening of The Life We Have, an award-winning short documentary that inspired Greg's journey after his team spent three years working on it.

Following the film, we'll all go for a fun 5K run/walk through the trails near Phil's to help process, celebrate the film and our community, and think of Rob Shaver.

Once we're all back, we'll have an incredible raffle with items donated from folks including Courier Socks, The North Face, Maurten, Hush Coffee, a Ninja Creami Swirl, and more!

It’s a great chance to spend time together, enjoy good vibes, and help make a real difference. Come along and be part of something special that celebrates life, community, and dedication!


About the film

For over three years, Rob Shaver, 48, has run at least a mile every single day. Through rain, pain, and the weight of a terminal cancer diagnosis, his daily streak has become more than a habit — it’s an act of resilience, a step-by-step refusal to surrender to his disease.

The Life We Have traces Rob’s two-decade journey with stage four cancer, confronting profound questions at the heart of the human experience: What gives life meaning when time feels fragile? How do we keep moving forward when suffering feels endless?

As the film unfolds and Rob’s story deepens, we are invited into an intimate meditation on mortality, movement, and a reminder to cherish the life we have.
