Kick-off Event @ Veterans Building in Culver City

Hi All!

I attended the kick-off event today in Culver City! It was such an awesome event with fundraising ideas, sponsors and fellow teammates in training.

I finally met my mentor, Bertha; run coach Kiley; campaign manager, Lindsey among others.  Most especially, I met Virginia, our Honored teammate!

Lots of people where there for many different reasons; in honor of a loved one who is battling or has lost their battle with Leukemia or Lymphoma; or someone like me who wants to help a worthwhile cause.  Our journey has just begun and I can't wait to get our training started on November 6th!

If you haven't already done so, please check out my fundraising page and make a donation! It will help make a difference in someone's life!

GO TEAM!

Training

Thought I'd get a head start on my training and went to 24 Hour Fitness in Arcadia this morning before 7:30 am and jumped on the treadmill :).
At the suggestion of one of my coaches, I ran for 30 minutes; ended up running 1.87 miles.

So I've reached the 8% mark thanks to:
Mindi Hay, Diana Campos, Tere Garcia, Linh Hang and Fang Vilaylak

THANK YOU ladies for your donations, it really is appreciated. Only 2 more months to get the remaining 92%!

1st donation!

Received my first donation yesterday thanks to Jenny Siewert!
