Leigh Dokos's Marathon Journey!
Getting Fit for a Great Cause!
Welcome to my Team In Training home page!
I am training to run my first ever marathon...the Marine Corps Marathon! The Marine Corps Marathon holds a special place in my heart as I worked there in the Operations department as a staff member for a few years and it was also there that I met my husband! I've always said that I wanted to go back and run it one day and what better way to accomplish that goal than 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 as well as to accomplish a personal goal. 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 support my participation in Team In Training and help advance the Society's mission. Whether it is $1 or $1000, every penny makes a difference!
Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Its going to be a long journey, but well worth it! Thanks for your support!
