UPDATE 03/22/2010

=============================

Thank you to Maple Ave Restaurant for hosting the wine fundraiser dinner. The dinner was a success, we raised $1000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Thank you all for coming and being a part of that!

==============================

Dear Friends,

Welcome to my Team In Training home page. Two weeks ago, I became a member of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training, whose mission is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. For the next 5 months I will train daily - swimming, biking, and running - to help find a cure for these diseases. With the help of my Team members, contributions from the public, and the support of my wife, I will swim .9 miles, bike 26 miles, and run 6 miles at the St. Anthony's Triathlon in St. Petersburg, FL on April 25, 2010 in honor of a close family friend and honorary teammate Winnie. Winnie was diagnosed with stage IV Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma this past September. Her strength and courage through these trying times inspired me to join Team In Training and compete on behalf of her and all other Leukemia and Lymphoma patients.

I won't be able to train for this event alone, and I would be honored if you would help me. My minimum participation goal is to raise $4,200, but my personal goal is to reach and exceed $6,000. No matter how small or big, your contributions help. Donations are tax-deductible and need to be received no later than March 19, 2010. I invite you to join me in my journey, as I train in support of a cure.

Visit the Facebook group "We Love You Winnie Liang!" and leave Winnie a word of encouragement.

Follow me through my journey in my blog, as I train to cross the finish line.

Thank you so much for your support! See you at the finish line!

Sincerely yours,

Scott

    "Hi Scott, I'm so excited for you. Being a part of TNT has changed who I am today and I am grateful for it, I hope it does the same for you. Gary and I want to wish you the best of luck with training and fundraising. And I'm so sorry to hear about Winnie. She's a strong girl with lots of love and support. I know she'll be fine. Finding the cure to blood cancers has been dear to my heart because of my grandfather. I feel overwhelmed and grateful that you are doing this. Without participants like you, we are closer to a cure. Thank you. "
