Fund Raising Goal MET!!!

Well, it is official: I have met my fund raising goal of $4,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society...and surpassed it!!! I am so excited to be in this position 6 weeks before my big race. Now anything I can raise before October 19th is just that much more to go to fight blood cancers. THANK YOU so much for your support! I could not have done this without your love, encouragement, and of course, your generous donations. I have been moved to hear your personal stories about how blood cancers have touched your lives, and have really enjoyed having the opportunity to talk about my friend Bjorn and how special he was to me. Please keep his family in your thoughts. And I have been reminded what fun, supportive and generous friends I have in my life. You continually come to my events, cheer me on and ask how my training is going. I can't thank you enough for all that you have done. I hope that my training and fund raising may have inspired you to take on a similar challenge in honor of something or someone that you love! I am so excited to be able to donate this much money in honor of Bjorn...thank you again.
Catherine
