I have joined The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. We are on a mission to save lives...

As members of the team we will participate in events such as Marathons, Trithlons, Centuries, ect. Although it will be a challege for us, we will make it through because we will be participating in honor of local leukemia patients. Not only will we work hard and train for our events, but we will be doing fundraisers and collecting donations for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The Society provides funding for research, public and professional education, advocacy, patient aid and community service programs. In fact, thanks to research, the survival rate for the most common form of childhood leukemia has improved from 4% in 1960 to 80% today. (What a blessing)

I personally will be competing on November 2, 2002 in the Treasure Island Triathlon in San Fansico, CA. The triathlon consists of a .9 mile swim, a 25 mile bike ride, and a 6.1 mile run. Although this will be a challenge, it is not near the challege our patients and their families face everyday. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I work to raise my goal of $5000 and train for my event.
