Wellness Webinar: Purposeful Movement with Kenny

September 25 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm EDT

Purposeful Movement: Adding More Life to Your Years with Kenny Capps

Join Kenny Capps, founder of Cancer Active (previously Throwing Bones) to learn more about how to stay active while navigating your blood cancer journey. As a coach, athlete and cancer patient, Kenny inspires folks to keep moving forward, whether it’s walking to the mailbox and back, or running from one ocean to the other. In his words, “You set your limits. Don’t let cancer do it.” But what does that actually look like on a day to day basis? How can we learn patience during times when energy is low and symptoms are high? Be part of the conversation during this interactive (and unrecorded) motivational webinar, and join the Cancer Active movement to add more life to your years!

Bio: Kenny Capps is the Executive Director and Founder of Cancer Active, a patient-focused nonprofit organization whose mission is to educate and advocate for individuals living with cancer to improve their quality of life through healthy and active lifestyles. Diagnosed with with multiple myeloma in January 2015, Kenny had to alter his fitness routine but never lost sight of his personal goal to keep moving forward. After a bone marrow transplant, maintenance therapy and physical training to get back to the cycling and running that he’d been doing for years, he ran over across the state of North Carolina on the Mountains to Sea Trail – over 1200 miles in 54 days! It was the true launch of Cancer Active’s mission.
