IRONMAN World Championship Update

FUNDRAISER UPDATE

I am officially under two months away from the big day. On October 10, I will be competing in the IRONMAN World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. While an IRONMAN event is a triathlon consisting of a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride, and a 26.2 mile run, my race will be about a lot more than that.

I am fundraising for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society through IRONMAN to raise money for Double-hit lymphoma research. Double-hit lymphoma is very rare, aggressive and requires early treatment.

The Ironman Foundation, "Your Journey Your Cause," provides the platform for me to raise money that will be donated to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society who will designate the funds for Double-hit research.

With the help from family and friends, I have raised $4,197 with only $803 left to go until I reach my goal of $5,000!  Please donate and help me reach my goal of $5,000 by October 10 to fund research for Double-hit lymphoma. Every donation is 100% tax deductible. CLICK HERE to donate.

I am dedicating my swimming, biking and running miles to my dad, in honor and support of his fight against Double-hit lymphoma.
