Raising funds to fight kids' cancer
My son has been valiantly battling cancer for more than four years now. He is an inspiration. More info at http://dylan.ericdavid.info/
Now that I have lost more than 100 pounds on the Brentwood Diet, I am running the L.A. Marathon March 18 to raise funds for cancer research. I will most likely donate the funds to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation that supports research into a cure for what Dylan has. There are many worthy charities and it is hard to choose just one, but I think this is the best use of the funds we raise. More informative links are below, but here is the link to donate funds:http://superdylan.chipin.com/team-superdylan-la2012
I mention "we" because a few people have said they also wish to join "Team SuperDylan LA2012." There are no team meetings, but if you want to coordinate with me on training and meet up the day of the race, please contact me. Since so many of you are not in L.A. or do not want to run a marathon, you can be anywhere and run any race, just point people to the ChipIn link I will post next week to help the team raise the funds. I am using Hal Higdon't training programs, first his novice 10k program which, if you start today on week 2, it will line up perfectly with a 10k in Brentwood. Then after the 10k, I go straight into his novice marathon training program. There is a half-marathon in Irvine that also lines.
