Greetings everyone!
I finished!! What an amazing experience it was. The Disney half marathon was a success and I have each and every one of you to thank. The first few miles were a breeze. After mile 8, it started to hit me. I remember saying to myself, each step is one step closer to finding a cure. I thought about all of the positive words and donations and it really helped to push me through. I also have the great team in training folks who helped to push us along the race route.
I can accept donations for roughly another 60 days, if you know of anyone who might want to help donate to a wonderful cause, please pass along this page.
Thank YOU all again for helping. May 2013 be a great, healthy year for you all!
Darren
(Pictured above, my mom Pat at her last Bday (70 Year's young) yes, that's a bingo card on her cake, lol. To the right is me.. after my first 10k last year, I did it only because my friend was doing it.. I loved it, I CANNOT wait to see what it feels like to A) accomplish a half B) do it for such a great cause C) make my mom proud and D) help raise money to help this cause/research and so many other families struggling.
Teams are made up of individuals. Without them, there is no team.
Hi everyone!
Thanks for clicking the link.
As some of you know, my mom is battling this awful disease. It has been a long few months, but I am realizing one outlet for the stress is to try and help do something. I was planning on running my first half marathon in January at Disney in Orlando. Instead of just running, I want to run to raise money for the great work/research and support the LLS (Leukemia & Lymphoma Society) does. Please help me reach my goal of $2,900. Even if you can only afford $1.00, it would mean so much to me and to the cause.
I appreciate you taking the time to come to my page and for donating.
I will train my best.. and try to think of each and every one of you while I run. Your support means a lot. My mom and I appreciate your support!
Thanks!
Darren
