Racing to Save Lives
Welcome to my Team In Training home page.
I am training to participate in the Nike Women's Half-Marathon on October 21, 2007, as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. I ran my 1st LA Marathon with TNT this past March, and now Nike is my 3rd endurance event this year! Yes, I am inspired. But all of us on Team In Training have big plans & goals. We are raising funds for LLS to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease & myeloma from taking more lives. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is the world's largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research, education, and patient services. LLS aims to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
So, I'm completing this marathon 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!
Please make a donation by September 22 to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance the Society's mission. I strongly believe in TNT and LLS. So much so that I'm not only returning for another race, but volunteering as a TNT mentor to help others on their journey. TNT is one of few charities that donates at least 75% of their fundraising directly to the cause.
Please join us in making a difference! You might be surprised how close this hits to home. During last season's training, I found many friends, family, and even strangers who had been affected by these illnesses. Let's end this so no one will have to be affected anymore! THANK YOU.
I hope you'll visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!
