On Sunday, August 24, I'll participate in the Philadelphia LIVESTRONG Challenge, where I hope to raise $2,500 (with your help, of course!). I will ride 45 miles throughout the Philadephia area with about 3,000 other participants, including Lance Armstrong. I'll be a member of Team Fellowship, which was formed by Heather Jones. Unfortunatley, Heather will not make it this year; Cancer took her life in December of last year.
And again on Saturday, October 25-26, I'll participate in the Austin LIVESTRONG Challenge, where I hope to raise another $2,500 (with your help, of course. Here, I hope to ride 65 miles around the Austin area. This team was formed for Team Tammy's Tata's, my girlfriend, who recently finished her chemotherapy and is no undergoing radiation treatment for breast cancer. You can read more about Tammy's fight here.
For all of my challenges, I ride in thankfulness in particular for my father, a 10 year survivor, and for Tammy, who is still undergoing treatment, and for all of those who have had Cancer touch their lives.
