JUAN LARRAÑAGA's Team In Training
Racing to Save Lives
April 13, 2008 my team and I completed a sprint Triathalon. I feel great. Thank you all for you support!
I am training to participate in an endurance event as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training - Fort Lewis College Tri the Rim Triathalon- - Race Date Sunday, April 13, 2008. Swim 500 yards, Bike 12 miles, Run 3.1 miles.
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 event in honor of all 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! With your support our chapter has raised more then $32,000. Gracias!
