This is an interesting time for medical students in the class of 2016. With the end of second year right around the corner, Doctoring in Vermont under my belt, and my sights set on USMLE Step 1, I have become very aware of the profound amount of preclinical knowledge we all have accumulated in the past year and a half. At times, it has felt overwhelming. However, I have also become aware of a minor gap in medical education.

The UVM College of Medicine running and marathon team began five years ago as a fundraiser for pediatric oncology research. For the last two years, members of the team have raised funds for the Steps to Wellness program, which is an oncology and hematology rehabilitation program run by Dr. Kim Dittus and Dr. Patricia O’Brien.
