Flo's Foot Race to kick Cancer....
I am training to participate in a half marathon in Anchorage, Alaska as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. I'm completing this marathon in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers, but in particular for Jamie. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!
Please make a donation to help support my participation in Team In Training and advance the Society's mission.If you are not comfortable with donating on my site I would be happy to send you a donation form. Please feel free to contact me at:
