Marilu's Fundraising Page Jan 21, 2010 by Marilu Benedetti: Racing to Save Lives

Welcome to my Team In Training home page.

I'm training to participate in the Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon 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 brother-in-law Michael, a survivor, 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!

"Marilu, I admire you for investing so much of yourself in such a worthy cause. This donation is the least that I can do to recognize and celebrate your hard work, your motivation, and your efforts. As you run, celebrate the lives of people like your brother-in-law, my grandmother, and all of those who have fought this fight. Good Luck ML! "
