In case you didn’t hear, I am running a Marathon…
So, lately my life has been kind of turned upside down and upon introspection I found that although I think I have been doing the right things, I seem to have only been doing the right thing for myself. Quite often I think about my grandfather who passed away a few years ago, and I remember how much he gave to everyone around him, and decided that maybe I should follow in his footsteps if I hope to be a decent man at all, and as such I decided to challenge myself physically, and do it for a cause.
So, soon I will be running my first ever Olympic length Marathon in the Waddell and Reed Kansas City Marathon in order to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) as a part of their Team In Training program and I’m asking you to help by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. I am hoping to not make this not just a one time thing, but a ongoing event that I use to help people with these illnesses.
Please help others by using the link below to donate online quickly and securely plus learn more about my progress. You will receive a confirmation of your donation by email and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation.

Each donation helps accelerate finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. More than 823,000 Americans are battling these blood cancers. I am hoping that my participation in Team In Training will help bring them hope and support.
On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, thank you very much for your support. I greatly appreciate your generosity.
