Racing to Save Lives

Welcome to my Team In Training home page.

I'm training to participate in the Fairfield Half Marathon on June 28, 2009 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, and all cancer. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!

I AM TRAINING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND I AM TRAINING FOR LOU (above), WHO DIED MUCH TOO SOON FROM PANCREATIC CANCER. HE WAS ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN MY LIFE, AND HE IS MISSED TERRIBLY BY ALL WHO KNEW HIM. FOR MORE INFORMATION AND UPDATES ON MY TRAINING EXPERIENCES, GOOD AND BAD, PLEASE READ MY BLOG AT:
