Racing to Save Lives

Can you believe I did it? Well I'm going to DO IT AGAIN!

Through Team in Training I'm going to be running the Nike Women's Marathon for the second time this October, the race to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. And I can't do it without your help!

Let me tell you about my everlasting source of inspiration to race for the cure. He is my grandfather, Yuen Hon who is 74 years old and a survivor of leukemia. He is my Honored Teammate and the person who will keep me going mentally and physically during the toughest parts of training and the race.

As a participant in The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training program, I need your support. My goal is to raise $4,000 by September. This money will be used for research, patient services and education. Please think big and give as generously as you can. Don’t forget your donation is 100% tax deductible.

Donate through this website, or send a check made out to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to:

Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!
