Racing to Save Lives
Welcome to my Team In Training home page.
I am training to participate in a marathon in San Diego, CA, 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. They also work in conjunction with other cancer organizations to facilitate research and coordinate studies.
I'm completing this event in memory and honor of my husband, Steven. Steve passed away from cancer on September 6, 2006. Steve was an incredibly brave and passionate person and his memory lives on in all of us.
Steve wanted me to take his experience and the perspective we gained from it and help fight for cancer patients and thier families. I will be running for Steve and am proud to continue helping in the fight to rid our world of all cancers. 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.
I hope you'll visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!
