Will’s Legacy Lives On in Hood to Coast | Portland News

from Portland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Ten years after Will Krajewski’s passing, his father Joe continues to honor him by running the Hood to Coast race each year with a jar containing Will’s ashes — a touching tribute to the teen who first raced at age 13. Diagnosed with aggressive bone cancer just six weeks after that debut, Will never stopped showing up for Team WillPower, cheering from start and finish lines until his death at 17 in 2016. That same year, Joe ran the race calling it the hardest of his life. Since then, Team WillPower has raised over $100,000 for cancer research, turning Will’s passion into a powerful legacy.
