Racing to Save Lives...in Tahoe

Welcome to my Team In Training home page.

As many of you know I'm never one to shy away from a physical challenge. I've completed seven running marathons, an 87 mile inline race, countless inline marathons, a triathlon (even though I still can't swim), and many more challenging races. Today though, I am training to participate in a 100 mile "Century" bike ride called "America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride" as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. Many of my other races have been rewarding but there is an extra incentive with this one as I'll be racing for a cause. All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. I'm completing this event in honor of all individuals who have and who are battling blood cancers including a cousin and two friends from high school.

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

Here's a link to my training that I update fairly frequently. If you dig around and look at my ride on 4/12 you'll see that going down a hill I was cruising at a speed over 40 mph!!!

Thanks for your support!!

Finallly, I'd like to recognize my Dad who over the past 20 years has helped raise over $250,000 for the American Cancer Society through a ski-a-thon he oversaw.
