WELCOME! And for some of you, WELCOME BACK!

With the help of many of you, last year I raised over $3200 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and ran a total of almost 400 miles... an overall accomplishment that humbled me greatly. The generosity and support I received from friends, family, colleagues, and total strangers was breathtaking. I still continue to feel a gratitude like no other I have ever experienced. My journey was amazing and I am here to do it again...

• • • • • • • To celebrate those who have won their battle against blood cancer

• • • • • • • To honor those who are still fighting

• • • • • • • And in memory of those we have lost along the way

Please join me in my continued battle against blood cancer by donating on my behalf to the LLS. I cannot do this alone. Just donate what you can, whether that's $5, $75, $300, $1,000 or anything in between or beyond. It ALL helps save lives!

Who I'm Doing This For

"Leukemia ! On October 25th, 2010 we received a call from Dr. Smith with the results from Bailey’s blood test taken earlier that day. “We found some abnormalities in Bailey’s blood”, he said. “She has a very high amount of young white blood cells (blasts), and a very low red blood cell count “. There was a long pause, a moment of silence. “What does that mean?” I said. He then said, “Bailey has leukemia”. For a moment, time froze. Our lives were going to forever change. All you can think of is death and the thought of loosing your baby girl. The worst feeling of all is the unknown, not knowing the outcome of this disease." - Bailey's mom
