Pacific Grove Triathlon
Racing
to Save Lives

Leukemia is a
devastating blood cancer. It is estimated that over
100,000 Americans will be diagnosed and 60,000 will die this year from
leukemia and blood-related cancers. It is the number one killer of
children under the age of 15. There have been significant advances made
in cancer treatment, but there still is no cure. We have
decided to contribute our time as part of The Leukemia &
Lymphoma Society’s ‘Team in Training’
program. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is a program
that helps raise money to fight blood-related cancers. Raising the
money and training for the triathlon was a
challenge. But the challenge is nothing in comparison to the challenge
that cancer patients have to overcome on a daily basis battling this
disease. Thanks for
your support!
This is one of the back packs that we
wore during the triathlon with the names of the donater-requested
honorees.

We would like to say
that this triathlon was a tribute to all cancer patients, not only the
ones listed on our back pack.
