This race is to benefit the unbelievably strong Cortez Family. Victor Cortez, nicknamed "Tons of Fun" while he was in the Army, was diagnosed early this past summer with stage IV stomach cancer that has now spread to his lungs. Victor is a detective for Gwinnett County and just 35 years old. Victor and Jessica have a 2 year old, Mackenzie and a 4 month old, Lucas. The family greatly appreciates your support.
