***********************************

Welcome to my Team In Training home page.



I trained to participate in an endurance event as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training "The Marine Corps Marathon 2008". 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.

I am very thankful for your donation, no matters how much it will make a huge difference and many people's live.



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.



I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!



Any donation of good/services is 100% tax deductible in accordance with IRS regulations.
