Troy's One Man Relay
I am pledging to run/walk three relay-for-life events per year in various locations in honor of all my family members that have passed away from cancer, but especially my dear mom.
Relay-for-Life events raise money for cancer research and are sponsored by the American Cancer Society. In these events, teammates take turns running/walking around a school track for twelve hours. My plan is to stay on the track for the full 12 hours (with only short bath room breaks) in each of my events.
2007 Schedule of Events
May 7, 2007: College Station, TX COMPLETED.
Aug 17, 2007: Colorado City, TX
Sept 21, 2007: Keller, TX.
