Racing to Save Lives

Running a marathon has been on my short list for years, and I just realized that doing so isn't going to get any easier. Why not go for it now? And why not run for a great cause?

I'm training to participate in the ING New York City marathon on November 7th 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 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!

I'm running specifically in honor of Davis Taylor, a 6 year old hero here in Greenville who was recently diagnosed with leukemia. He's a fighter, as are his mom, dad and sister. It's amazing to see what happens when people rally around someone they love. Such is the case with Davis-and with others who've suffered from this disease.

Please make a donation in honor of Davis or someone you know and love to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission.

You can read more about my training and running here--

I hope you will visit our web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support and for making this race about more than just the finish line.
