Racing to Save Lives


That's a picture of me after completing a mock triathlon set up by our coaches and mentors at Zuma beach this past February as part of training for the real triathlon coming up at the end of March. Although we were unable to do the swimming leg of the race due to rough water, just the fact that I was able to complete the 18 mile bike ride followed by the 4 mile run is something I consider a great success for myself. Looks like the months of training is paying off!


I'm training to participate in an a triathlon as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training. How long is this triathlon you ask? It's Olympic distance so that means:


1500 m (.9 mi) ocean swim

40k (24.8 mi) Bike ride

10K (6.2 mi) run


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. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we 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. No amount is too small - every little bit helps!


All donations are 100% tax-deductible.


Thanks for your support!
