Team In Training is a fundraising and marathon-training program that will prepare me, along with my teammates, for the challenges of running a marathon while fundraising for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). LLS is a national voluntary health agency dedicated to curing leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improving the quality of life of patients and their families.
As the largest endurance training program in the U.S., Team In Training provides its participants with coaching and training expertise in exchange for raising money towards finding a cure for leukemia and lymphoma. As part of Team in Training, I will be competing in the Nike Women’s Half Marathon in San Francisco on October 17, 2010.
I invite you to support me as I fundraise for LLS and train for the Nike Women's Half Marathon. I have made a personal commitment to raise $3200.00. By making your online purchases through this site I will collect the advertiser's fee for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I am asking for your support in making a difference. The goal of LLS is that 75% of all donations go directly to the cause, so I’m asking you to be as generous as possible. LLS prides itself in having an expense ratio of no more than 25%, and was rated by Money magazine as one of the top ten charities for having the highest percentage of funds raised directly benefiting research and patient services.
Please support me in this cause by making your future online purchases through this site!
