Hey you guys, I am am running a half marathon to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I have a cousin who survived a battle with Lymphoma and feel like this is a great cause. Even though the training is difficult, and I will be having to run a long 13 miles, I think it is all worth it in hopes of finding a cure for blood cancers.

Please visit my website and donate if you can... even a small amount goes a long way!!

    A co-worker of mine from Texas has a daughter with Leukemia and runs in this same marathon...donated $250 this year. He's raised almost $25k already. Good luck!

    Best of luck...5 miles near kills me.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I ran a half marathon back in 2004 and that was the last distance running I've ever done since then. My knees and my back just couldn't handle it.
