RACING TO SAVE LIVES


~In loving memory~


~Christine Ruth Carson, 1955-2009~



Welcome to my Team In Training home page!


Last summer I raced over 100 miles to help raise money for cancer research. This summer I will be swimming, biking and running once again for a cure! I am going to complete the Elkhart Lake Triathlon in honor and memory of my mother, Christine Carson. I can't do it without your help! Over the last two years, with your continued support, I have raised over $7000, and this summer I would like to make that amount over $10000!


DID YOU KNOW:


Leukemia causes more deaths than any other cancer among CHILDREN and YOUNG ADULTS under the age of 20.


Every 4 minutes one person is diagnosed with a blood cancer. Every ten minutes, someone dies from a blood cancer. This statistic represents nearly 146 people each day, or more than six people every hour.


My goal is to raise $3000 dollars this summer to help fund research and support people living with this horrible disease. Please help me stand up and run for people who are too sick to even get out of bed.
