Racing to Save Lives
Welcome to my Team In Training home page!
I'm training to participate in an Olympic distance triathlon 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 triathlon in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers as well as all those who are fighting any other type of cancer known today.
The triathlon that I am training for is the Nations Triathlon which takes place in Washington D.C. on September 14th of this year. It includes a 1.5k swim, 40k bike, and 10k run. This will be by far my greatest physical challenge that I’ve undertaken.
The reason that I’ve chosen to take on this task and participate in Team In Training is because it incorporates my passion for endurance events and the opportunity to raise enough funds to make a mark on cancer research. I know that if I reach my fundraising goal, I can make that mark. I’ve found my niche and I’m working hard to achieve my goal.
I’d like to ask if you would please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission. My fundraising goal is $4,500. You can help me achieve my goal and support the fight against cancer by making an online donation here on this page
You can also help support me and my goal by mailing a donation to my home address:
7991 W. Frederick Garland Rd.
Union, OH 45322
Please make checks payable to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society or LLS in short. Memo Abby Minneman-Nations Triathlon. Thank you for your support!
I hope you will visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!
