Welcome to my fundraising page for the Team LIVESTRONG Challenge Davis which was held on June 24, 2012. With the help of friends, family, and mostly the DotNetNuke community (friends) I was able to raise $4,015 for LIVESTRONG and our team, Team ITM America, raised $4,300 for the cause. A big thank you to everyone who took the time to donate, we really appreciate it.
I am riding the 100 (95.8) mile distance at the 2012 Team LIVESTRONG Challenge Davis for four special people in my life, all affected by cancer. As part of the event I have set a goal of raising $1,000 $2,500 $3,500 $4,000, I would appreciate any amount that you can donate to my cause, you can use the link on the left side of this page to DONATE NOW.
I am riding the #LSCDavis for four people, all affected by cancer.
My father Bill was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in August 2011, he had treatment for the cancer in November 2011 and we are hopeful that it was caught early enough to be eradicated by the treatment. (Photo right with my daughter Jacqueline on her first birthday 10/9/2011)
My uncle John, married to my father's sister, has been battling cancer for a number of years now.
My auntie Carol was diagnosed with breast cancer and successfully beat the disease.
One of my best friend's mother Janice was very recently diagnosed with breast cancer and is going through the treatment process now.
These close friends and family are my motivation for doing the LIVESTRONG Challenge in Davis this year. As of January of 2012 the longest bike ride I've ever done was 30.3 miles, that was in August 2011 (this has since been surpassed). If all goes as planned, I will surpass that total multiple times this year. Please stay tuned to my training and ride results by checking out the LIVESTRONG blog posts here on my site.
