Our Honored Hero

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research, education, and patient services. The Society’s mission is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

Team In Training (TNT) benefits The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society by enlisting endurance athletes to raise funds in exchange for coaching and accommodations at sponsored events. A major part of training for the ING Georgia Marathon or Half Marathon is motivation.

Daniel is the motivation for TNT members training for ING. Daniel was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (A.L.L) in August 2005. He is now 4 years old, attending Pre K, and just finished his A.L.L treatments. Your generosity will help Daniel and others like him to continue to beat blood cancer and to reach the ultimate goal, a cure to end all blood cancers.

I’ll run, you donate! If you’d like to help out the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, please visit my website to donate:

Team in Training

As most of you know, I am training to complete the Atlanta ING marathon with The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team In Training program.

In addition to the training to complete the 26.2 miles in under 5 hours, I have set a personal fundraising goal of $1800 that will benefit The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's patient aid and cancer research programs.

I'm getting closer but I still need to raise $ 1450.00, so I am asking 50 people to each give $26.00 in the next 10 days. (You can donate securely by visiting the link to my page on the Team in Training Website below.)

Together, we can do this- and I think it will be fun to see how quickly I can reach my goal.
Interested…just go to http://pages.teamintraining.org/ga/Georgia09/rloew
Check back often to see how much progress we are making towards the goal!!!

Please consider forwarding this email, the more people that participate, the faster we can find a cure for Leukemia, Lymphoma and other blood cancers!
If you have a person in your family or friends that has been touched by cancer, please send me their name- I would love to train in honor of them as well.

Thanks again, to each of us individually $26 isn't that much (just a dollar a mile), but together the power of our money can save many lives!!

Take care and many thanks,
