Jaclyn Magi- The Countdown to Gameday Begins!!!!!!!

"We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history"

"He who has hope has everything."

And we plan to do just that

 

First and foremost, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!

 

Up to date, your donations have aided 296 families battling these deadly blood cancers!!!!

 

Allow me to introduce myself…

My name is Jaclyn Magi and I am 25 years old.  I am training with TNT to participate in my very first marathon on April 26th, 2008 in Nashville, Tennessee.  That’s right…26.2 miles of running…sounds impossible right??   

 

I started training in December of ’07…My longest run so far has been 15 miles…and it’s getting easier each time!!!  Although, sometimes I do like to be dramatic and say I can’t take it anymore J!!!!!  This is a personal challenge that has pushed me to new limits, ones that I really never even imagined!!!   

 

Races I’ve completed so far:

Frank Lebow Memorial Race (8 miles)

Bronx Grand Prix Half Marathon (13.1 miles)

Colon Cancer Challenge (9.3 miles)

 

And we are getting SO CLOSE!!!...

The survival rate for the most common form of childhood leukemia has improved from 4% in 1960 to 95% in 2006...but for those of you who know me...I don't settle for anything less than 100% and were not there yet.  Unfortunately, over 135,520 people in the United States will be diagnosed with blood cancer in 2007 and an estimated 52,310 people will die. 

 

To get there…We NEED your help!!!...

Any donation you can make is sincerely appreciated!!!  It will go towards blood cancer research, education, and patient services.  Local families will personally benefit from your donations.  Don’t forget that your donation is 100% tax deductible.

 

This is a cause I hold close to my heart…

I have seen too many family members, friends, teammates, colleagues, and students whose lives have been affected by these devastating diseases. Their courage, strength and will to overcome are astounding.  They are my heroes and my determination!!!

I'm completing this event in honor of my grandmother, Millie Moscato <3, and all individuals who are battling blood cancers...so that one day in the very near future...they will be CURED!!!!

 

Please come back and visit me!!!...

I hope you'll visit my web site often to see my progress.

 

To all who attended “Christmas Crawl 4 a Cure ’07”…Your generosity was astonishing…Thanks to you guys, we were able to raise $1,300 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society…and we had a blast!!!

 

During our February “Cupid Crawl 4 a Cure,” we raised over $2,100!!!! Again, your generosity has been both amazing and inspiring and continues to keep us going!!!!

 

To  Drama, Dirty Di, and Mike Kosciol…the running community wasn’t quite ready for us…but I bet they’re glad we’re here!!!!!!!!

 

Thank you for all your support and generosity!!!
