Racing to Save Lives


Welcome to my Team In Training home page!!


I have moved my blog and overal information about my ride to my new website: www.cyclingsawatzki.com


Also, if you want to directly check out my blog, go here: http://blog.cyclingsawatzki.com


Please feel free to check out my site and my blog for updates and pictures!



A mini background on my mission:


A few weeks ago my dad was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a form of cancer that less than a month ago I knew virtually nothing about. Since that time, I have discovered that it is one of the most common cancers, particularily in the midwest.


While doing research about Lymphoma, I came acros a fundraising program called Team In Training...where, in exchange for raising $4,300 for cancer research, I will be trained to compete in an endurance sporting event of my choice.


Over the past year I have lost 75 lbs and recently have started to get into bike riding...so when I saw that bike rides were a choice I knew I had to join!


The event I have chosen to participate in is the Seagul Century Bike Ride in Maryland in October. It's a 100-mile, pretty flat bike ride. So for the next 5 months I will be training to participate in this event in honor of my dad and his amazing positive spirit that is guiding him through this time in his life.


Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission, it would mean a great deal to me and my family.


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


Sincerely,

Sara
