Racing to Save Lives

That would be the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. Yes, this cause is THAT awesome!

Welcome to my Team In Training home page.

I am training to participate in the Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon taking place on June 1, 2008 in San Diego, CA. I am training 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 am running for an extraordinary woman, Dipti Sutaria (Dipti Massi), who unfortunately lost her decade long battle with cancer this past summer. I'm completing this event in honor of her and the other individuals who are battling blood cancers. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!

I am honored that my life crossed her path. On June 1, I will wear an Honored Teammate bracelet for Dipti Massi, and when the going gets tough, I will think of her.

I need YOUR help in finishing this marathon. My goal is to raise at least $5,000 by May 1, 2008. Please think big and give as generously as you can, even $25 helps out.

Please read about my experiences at: http://marathonmegs.blogspot.com/. I hope you'll visit my Web sites often. Thanks for your support! It means a lot to me.
