Racing to Save Lives
Welcome to my Team In Training home page.
It is New Year's Day and I have 25 more days until the Marathon!
This past Sunday, my champion and sister Jill hopped on her bike with a heavy backpack filled with Gatorade, Gel and layers of my cold weather gear to accompany me on the peak of my training - the 20 mile run. She did this despite a busy family Christmas week, loads of work, and her back that went out the week before... The location was the beautiful White Rock Lake near Dallas with hundreds of other runners, bikers and walkers who greeted us warmly with typical Texas hospitality. Phew, I made it. Yippee. !! The feeling of accomplishment is intoxicating! I highly recommend that all of you to train and run a race at least once in your lifetime - you will be so glad you did!
Once again thank you to all who are sponsoring this event and supporting the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The LLS is an amazing organization that has seriously made a difference with research, new treatments and support for those suffering from blood cancers. I've had the privilege of meeting some amazingly brave people who are fighting these diseases and they have profoundly changed my perspective on life. We can all be reminded to always be present and mindful and not to fret over the small stuff. Good health is a precious gift that should never be squandered.
Best wishes to everyone for laughter, health and happiness in the coming year and I hope to see you in Miami on the 25th.

PS, the photo is of my dear friend Dr. Modie. We ran a 10 K a couple of years ago in Aruba...and to our utter suprise we both brought home trophies...it was a brilliant day. _____________
I'm training to participate in the ING Miami Marathon on January 25th as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training. 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 my Aunt and my late Grandfather and all individuals who are battling blood cancers. 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! |
