Racing to Save Lives


Welcome back to my Team In Training home page.


The 2009 Disney Marathon was such a life-altering event for me, I've decided to go again. I'm training to participate in the 2010 Disney Half Marathon as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) 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. I am completing this event 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!


This year, I run in memory of my mom's good friend, Jackie, who lost her fight on April 12, 2009.


I will, once again, run in honor of my cousin's co-worker, Bobbert, who has been in remission for all of 2009!


I am also running in honor of a friend's father, Frank, who was recently diagnosed with Lymphoma.


I look forward to partnering with you again this year as we help fund the fight against blood cancers.


Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission.


I hope you will visit my web site often.


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


Cheers,

Rachel

"I am making this donation for my father-in-law who was very recently diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Primary Lymphoma of the Bone. His prognosis is great and, although inoperable, should clear up completely. We are unbelievably grateful!! This wouldn't have been possible without research dollars."

"I have been wanting to send a donation since I read that you were doing this again but have been unable to do so until now. I hope this helps. I wish you the best of luck and commend you for your determination! Love, Charlotte P.S. If it's not too much trouble, I would like to stay as anonymous as possible ;-) Thanks and good luck!"
