change volume Alexandria man truly stands up to cancer (WTOP s Ken Duffy)
How far would you go to raise money for a good cause? For one Alexandria, Virginia, man, it’s all about taking things to the extreme.
Patrick “Pat” Malone stood on his feet for 24 consecutive hours at Fire Works Pizza in Arlington in the name of fighting cancer. The 63-year-old cancer survivor started at 4:26 p.m. Wednesday, and finished at the exact time the following day.
“I’m exhausted, but pleasantly exhausted,” Malone told WTOP after completing his marathon event.
This is actually Malone’s seventh straight year hosting this event through the Stand Up To Cancer group, which pledges all donations to cancer research.
