Racing to Save Lives

Welcome to my Team In Training home page.

As some of you are aware, I started running this year. So for the first 42 years of my life I never ran a mile, now I am making up for it.

I have committed to run the Goofy race at DisneyWorld this January. This race Covers 39.3 miles over two days. For practice I ran Grandmas marathon In Duluth Mn, on June 15. Yep, I finished it in 4 hours and 12 minutes. It was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, as well as the most fun. After finishing, I started looking forward to the Goofy race with the same anticipation of a challenge.

I know others run a different kind of race, one for life. An eye opener happened to me 15 years ago, when my brother ( Leonard ) came down with Leukemia. He started his race for life, and is still racing today. We all thank God for his endurance in overcoming such a difficult challenge.

In watching Leonard go through this challenge, I noticed how many people helped him, It truley amazed me. These people cheered him on, as in a marathon but they did not know him. They were there just for support and help, just cause.

Well, how can I help?? I thought to myself.

Since I started running I notice many people run for different charities. And so, here I am with the Team in Training. I want nothing more than to help these people help others, like my Brother.

I am completing this event in honor of my brother Leonard, for his accomplishment to date.

Please make a donation to support Team In Training and help advance the Leukemia Society's mission.

I hope you'll visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress.

Thanks for your support!
