Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I am running to raise money for the Lupus Foundation of America.  My family knows several people who have lupus, and this cause is very important to us.  The race is September 15, 2007 and is 50 miles.  Donating through this site is simple, fast, and secure.

BREAKING NEWS:  Tifosi Optics has donated two pairs of high-quality sunglasses to my run.  These are really nice glasses with interchangeable lenses--perfect for running or other sports.  They retail at $50-$60 each.

For every $5 that you donate, you will be entered into a drawing to be held September 16th for the sunglasses.  $5 for a chance to win $60 sunglasses?  That's not bad for a worthy cause.  Make sure to include your email address so I know who to contact if you win.  Go to my blog for more information.

If you'd like to donate, you can sponsor me at $.50 per mile with a $25 donation.  Or, if you'd like, you can donate more or less. 

Many thanks for your support.  I would appreciate if you would forward this page to at least one of your friends and ask them to donate, too.  If each of you send this to two of your friends and they also donate $25 we can REACH OUT GOAL!

I've started a blog so that people can keep track of my training progress.  You can reach it at:
