The Starting Line

Friends and Family!

Welcome to the blog that will follow me mile by mile through my multi-mile journey to run one 13.1 mile race and raise $100 dollars per mile for a good cause.

To achieve my goal of running a half-marathon this year, I've joined an organization and team called Team in Training. In exchange for a team experience complete with coaches, teammates, and support, I will be fundraising for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

On April 5, 2009, after just a few months of training, I will be running in the Portland Race for the Roses Half-Marathon. Mark your calendars and come watch! And keep checking back for all the muscle-aching, blistering details of training. I hope that with your support I can complete both my goals in this race to end a disease. THANKS!!
