Alone it's hard to conquer a problem, but together we can SAVE THE WORLD! Let's start by finding a cure for blood cancers, how do we do this? By coming together to raise money to fund critical research through the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
Welcome to our Team Lainey 9:16 page! My daughter, Lainey, was diagnosed with Leukemia just two weeks prior to her second birthday. As a parent, you can respond with anger, but anger doesn't change anything, ACTION does. So, we're taking ACTION! As a mom, I'll do anything to help my babies, including running my first ever half marathon to honor my sweet Lainey's fight. And guess what? I have some AMAZING friends joining me to form our Team Lainey 9:16 group, all to raise money and awareness for LLS along with honoring Lainey. They might come in handy to carry me part of the way too since I have never been a runner. BUT, if my two year old daughter can endure 2 1/2 years of chemo, I can train for 6 months to run 13.1 miles. So, please help us honor Lainey by donating to our team or JOINING our team to run in DC at the Nike Women's Half Marathon on April 27, 2014.
Throughout different cities and towns people are coming together to create separate teams to participate in a sports endurance event all with one common goal to honor and benefit all individuals battling blood cancers. Members of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Team In Training will be creating teams, large and small, that will be participating in sports events across the country. They will be raising funds to help find cures and more effective treatment for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma. As a team, we can accomplish great things towards cures for blood cancers.
