A deaf marathon runner plans to raise money for charity with a 40 mile run a week from Sunday (July 18) when he turns 40. James Yevich will give the money raised to a friend who has been fighting liver cancer for the past four years, a friend battling lymphoma for the past two years, the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation; and the 2013 Deaf Olympics. Yevich plans to run through parts of Conneticut starting from Fairfield (his home town) and ending at his current residence in Stratford.
