Welcome to the Llama Pit

LiveStrong Challenge “San Jose”

Dear Friends,

Those fighting cancer are in a daily battle that requires them to summon uncommon courage and often to survive on boosts of morale that loved ones and their community can drive.  Janet, Anna, Lucas – these are some of the amazing people in my life who faced cancer and came through victorious. Sharon was a beloved mother of a friend who lost her fight this year. And Brandon is a brave young man in my life who, along with his family, is wrestling today with the unknown of his cancer’s direction.
 
This summer I and Team Alone And Unafraid will join the ranks of those on the front lines of the cancer battle. I will be riding with five friends and thousands of others as part of Team LIVESTRONG in the LIVESTRONG Challenge San Jose, CA. 
 
If you’re not aware, LIVESTRONG seeks to inspire and empower people affected by cancer and through the LIVESTRONG Challenge I’m picking a fight with cancer and uniting with others who are interested in making cancer a global priority.

On July, 11 2010, I’m going to ride my bike at least 50 miles. In addition to this, I’m hoping to raise at least $500 for the fight against cancer.

Asking for donations can be hard, but some things are so important we have to let go of our fears.  Who are the people in your own life that have stood up to cancer or may be coming face-to-face with it right now? Maybe you can’t ride, but you can join with me to help them win their battle as well.
 
To learn more about my participation and contribute to the cause go to http://sanjose2010.livestrong.org, click on the donate tab and help me in my effort to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Remember, every dollar counts.

I’d like to thank you in advance for your donation. If you can’t donate, please think about joining me by registering on http://www.livestrong.org/team.

Thanks and LIVESTRONG:
