Racing to Save Lives
Welcome to my Team In Training home page.
WE DID IT!!!! Well the fundraising that is. For those of you who have participated in the events we have had and those who have given donations I thank you from the bottom of my heart on behalf of those suffering from blood related cancer disorders.
As for me, I'm almost ready only a couple of weeks to go for the Olympic distance triathlon (.9 mile swim, 25 mile bike, 6.2 mile run). I'm not as crazy as I thought, I feel stronger, healthier and ready to do my best.
Swimming is still the most challenging part, but I would say the wet suit does help. I was able to complete a .75 mile swim in 46 min, I am running 9-10 min miles (thats for you TOM!) and I am biking 3-4 min miles. Yes, I have come a long way.
I'd like to thank all who have supported me. I feel really grateful for all the gifts that have been donated to help save lives. I am proud to know that the efforts we have made will 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 in the hopes of finding a cure.
Once again thanks for your support! Wish me luck and a prayer too:} Thanks for getting off your butts!!
