Racing to Save Lives
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
As most of you know, I am more partial to drinking and Karaoke than any form of physical exersize, however, I have decided to broaden my horizons!
I am training to participate in the San Diego Rock n Roll Marathon 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 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!
Every 5 minutes someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer, and every 10 minutes someone will lose their life! Thats 145 children and adults a day, or 6 people every hour!! Leukemia causes more deaths in children than any other type of cancer. It could affect any one of us at any time.
Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission. Any donation makes a difference! If you can not donate PLEASE PLEASE send this email on to people who might be able to.
I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress (or lack of it). I am not really the athletic type, so be sure to check in on my blogs for a good old laugh.
I know this is not the best time to be asking for money (Credit Crunch!), but PLEASE try and bear in mind that you WILL know someone who is affected by this devastating disease at some time in your life. Any donation helps!!
Thanks for your support!
