A Short Introduction to a Very Long Tale
On October 15, 2004, I will be travelling to Austin, Texas and riding alongside the incredible SIX time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong (and a few thousand others) in the Eight Annual Ride for the Roses charity bicycle race. The race supports the Lance Armstrong Foundation and its work on behalf of those whose lives have been affected by cancer. What is this all about? Been noticing those yellow bracelets lately? Please read on…
In November 2002 I was diagnosed with Stage III colon cancer and fought a battle for my life. Through some true medical miracles and a lot of support, I am here today, striving to flourish, put the pieces of my life back together and live in a more meaningful way. I have learned that living without cancer presents as many challenges as living with cancer.
As part of my recovery, it has become very important to me to help others less fortunate than I have been. This year I have chosen to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation, an organization that has personally helped me in numerous ways throughout my illness and its aftermath. I honestly can not think of a more deserving or relevant cause.
Founded in 1998 by Lance Armstrong after his personal battle with testicular cancer, and now symbolized by the ubiquitous yellow LIVESTRONG band, The Lance Armstrong Foundation promotes the optimal physical, psychological, and social recovery and care of cancer survivors. The LAF is working to identify and improve cancer survivor services and facilitate the delivery of those services—and a large dose of hope—to the patients, their families, and other loved ones touched by the disease. The money you donate will help to aid those affected by cancer through programs, advocacy, research and survivorship support
I have pledged to raise $20,000 this year for the Lance Armstrong Foundation as a member of its Peloton Project, the Foundation’s grass roots fundraising effort.
Amount raised to date: $15,360
