On June 2, 2002 I will join a group of runners and walkers from the Seattle area to participate in the Suzuki Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon in San Diego. I have made a personal commitment to train and participate in the marathon as a member of a special team called "Team in Training," which is sponsored by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. As a member of TNT, I have made a commitment to raise $3600 by May 16th on behalf of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society is a national not-for-profit agency dedicated to seeking the cause and eventual cure for leukemia and its allied cancers. At least 75% of all funds raised for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society go directly to patient services and research. Ample funding is a crucial part of the continued research and services of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Please help support this worthy cause by sponsoring me in this project.

Whatever you can contribute will help – it all adds up. I believe strongly in this cause and I will be working very hard to "earn" your contribution.

Donations can be made with cash, check, or credit card. Please make your checks out to the Leukemia Society of America and remember that your contribution is tax deductible. Donations can be sent to me. Please email me at saubin00@hotmail.com for information on how to contribute. Thank you for considering contributing to this cause!

I know that this marathon will be the most physically challenging event of my lifetime, and yet it seems so small a feat in comparison to the challenge that those battling leukemia and its allied cancers face each day. I truly appreciate your support and I will keep you all updated on my progress and training. For more information on Team in Training, please visit www.teamintraining.org.
