Solvang Again!!! Hey guys and gals... yet again, I've found myself signed up for another TNT event. I'm signed up for the Solvang Century 2010. After last year's experience with TNT, I know I'm hooked on the program and the fundraising to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. It's a great program and it really brings out great people. This year I'll be a mentor to the Solvang Team and I hope to be a great help to the Coaches, Captain, and other Mentors. I'll be doing much of the same as last year on my page here and keeping you updated on my progress of training (which I've slacked off since the MS150). Here's a pic of Michael and I after the 2009 Solvang Century. Last year I was able to raise almost $4600 for LLS I'm hoping to break the $5000 mark this go around. I'll need the help of everybody to make this a reality. I'm brainstorming new ideas for fundraising and I hope to have fun ways for everybody to participate.
