Rena Palumbo's PledgePage

I will be running in the San Diego marathon on June 1, 2003 in an effort to raise funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

I am taking part in the Team in Training Program, which trains runners, walkers, cyclists and triathletes to participate in endurance events. In return for professional training, I agreed to dedicate my time to raise funds for the battle against Leukemia and related cancers. My goal is to raise $4,000.

Where does this money go? Funds gathered go directly to research for a cure, financial support for patients and public education. 76% of all funds will go directly to these services.

To date, the most I have run is 5 miles, but I am confident that with the help of my training coaches and teammates I will complete the race.
