Hi Everyone

I am training for Twin Cities Marathon as part of Team in Training. The money we raise goes to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society to help find a cure for blood related cancers. I have run several marathons in the past, but this year is different.

My dad died in 1997. He was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. My mom died just about one year later in 1998. She was diagnosed with a form of acute leukemia. This year, the Twin Cities Marathon is approximately halfway between the ten years anniversaries of their deaths.

So this year, the marathon is for them.

Thanks
