Racing to Save Lives
Welcome to my Team In Training home page.
I am training to participate in Memphis In May's Olympic Distance Triathlon 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.
During the past several months, God has allowed me to begin praying specifically for three newly diagnosed cancer patients. I have already been given permission to share information about two of these three patients. Last fall, my friend and colleague, Mississippi Chris Sharp, was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Ryan Harrison, an 8-year old cousin of my friend and coworker Derrick Carter, was diagnosed with Stage III Burkett's Lymphoma in February 2009.
As February drew to an end, I signed up to race for a cure! I knew I could do the run, but I reflected on the fact that I had not swam more than two consecutive laps in 20 years, I didn't yet own a bike, and the triathlon was scheduled for May 17th. My goal now is to train to triumphantly cross the finish line. I am completing this event in honor of Chris, Ryan, and 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: To cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see our progress. Thanks for your support!
