I started with Team in Training in 2003 after reading a magazine article
about how TNT trains ordinary people for endurance events. I had
always wanted to run a marathon, but had no idea how to go about training
for one and thought this would be a great opportunity to accomplish a
personal goal and give back to the community at the same time. I
completed my first event with Team in Training in February of 2004, the
Motorola Marathon, in Austin Texas. Since my first season with TNT, I
have completed 3 half marathons, a century ride, and
a triathlon. Did I say that I LOVE TNT! Recently I was
blessed to expand my passion for this cause and became a full time employee
of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in April of 2007. I have always
said that a person should truly love what they do, but this is the first
time that I can honestly say it myself. This position gives me the
opportunity to work with amazing people everyday and truly make a
difference in the lives of people in my community. I couldn't ask for
anything better.
