My 2015 Vancouver Half Marathon Fundraising Page

Feb 06, 2015

 

Teams are made up of individuals. Without them, there is no team.

Welcome to my Team In Training home page. I'm fundraising for the 2015 Vancouver Marathon on May 3, 2015, training with my friends at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. (Update Feb 6: I recently broke my toe and have decided to improve my healing prospects by changing my goal to complete the Vancouver half marathon instead of the full.)

I have a mission: to help find cures and more effective treatments for blood cancers. To accomplish that mission, I’m participating in a sports endurance event as a member of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Team In Training. Like the other members of TNT, I will be raising funds to help find cures and better treatments for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma. I’m improving the quality of my life by participating and with your support, I can help improve the quality of life for patients and their families as well.

Please make a donation in support of my efforts with Team In Training and help advance the research for cures. This will be my sixteenth season with TNT (previously a half marathon in San Francisco and fulls in Portland, San Francisco, Napa, Victoria BC, Atlanta, Washington DC, Los Angeles, Chattanooga, Oakland, Richmond, San Luis Obispo [twice], New York City, and Chicago) and I welcome anyone who would like to make a repeat donation to a great cause!

 

I use my personal website to keep a log of my TNT and other running activities. Be sure to check there frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!

 

PS: That photo is me finishing the 2009 Royal Victoria Marathon, my best marathon performance. But visit that link on my website to find out why the clock time seems suspiciously impressive!
