About Me

I'm training to participate in an endurance event 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!
My goal is to raise a minimum of $2500 in order to run in the ING Philadelphia Distance Run on September 20, 2009. This is a 13.1 mile run, beginning at the Art Museum, running down into Old City, then heading back towards the Schuylkill for a nice run along the river and back to the Art Museum. There will be 11 bands rocking us along the course. I hope to see a lot of smiling faces out there cheering us on!
Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission.
