Racing to Save Lives


Welcome to my Team In Training home page! I have an affinity both for using too many exclamations in emails and for training with TNT. This will be my 3rd event running to find a cure for blood cancers!

<===This is me when I finished my first marathon last November. It was an amazing experience==so much so that I'm doing it again


In the last few years I have raised a little over $6000 for LLS. This year, I'd love to take that goal to at least 9! It's my goal to raise 3K BEFORE my 30th birthday (Oct. 24, 2009.)


I'm training to participate in an endurance event 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 the San Antonion Rock N Roll Marathon (or 1/2)in honor of Kelli Lillienstern, Sue Bonner, Ben Moreland all individuals who are battling blood cancers. I also run in memory of Ali Bagheri and Hannah Green. These people are the real heroes on our team, and I need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!


Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission. (or mail a check made out to LLS sent to 6808 Luckenbach Ln. Austin, TX 78729)


I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!
