Sister Runs Marathon To Honor Sister 10/14/2012

Share

Running to wage the war against blood cancer. Affiliated with The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I Her story is below.

I am running my first marathon, 26.2 miles, in Honor of my sister Tara who passed from Secondary MDS. This page is designed to address viewers to interact with me on any questions about how my training is going and about the fundraising. I did some math and found that if just 250 people donated $20.00 each...this would raise $5000.00 to go to help fund The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in the war

Do to multiple injuries, I won't be running very many races, if any this year until i have everything taken care of; back & bi-lateral knee injures.
I will, however, be running, jogging, walking, bike riding, and swimming in order to stay in shape, as long as I am able...PLEASE KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS!

My Fundraising Page I love to run, but today I run for a cause and a reason, my sister, Tara, who passed away on December, 2011, from a long battle with Myelodysplastic Syndrome, MDS, (formerly known as preleukemia). MDS is a medical condition that involves the ineffective production (or dysplasia) of the myeloid class...

Today would have been my sis's 31st birthday...I believe Christ sent this verse to me from her to help relieve me from the pain I am in. I will be running in her honor today in Middletown, NY: 17 North Street (4-mile race) ~~ Tara legs & God Speed

Tomorrow I will be running the Summer Solstice Run in 95 degree weather, which according to the news is supposed to feel like 110 degrees. This doesn't include humidity! Another one to add to the list of runs that Tara would be so proud of and now I can be praising God that she gave me the extra push to do!

So I have ran about 60 miles in the last 2 weeks. My fundraising is going well! Multiple checks came in the mail over the last week and a couple of cash donations! Thank you to everyone who donated online as well!
