Join Team LIVESTRONG & Team Fatty with me and fight cancer!

While many folks have stories of cancer that touch very close to them, or even have been affected themselves, I support the cancer research and treatment causes because it's very possible it will be in my future. My grandmother (my mom's mom and one of the three wonderful women who have passed the name Eda down to me) had breast cancer many years ago and had a mastectomy that kept her cancer from returning. This was well before the present chemotherapy and other treatments were in place. I understand that cancer is in my genetics.

And I also realize that people are battling the many forms of cancer every day and are still able to hold their heads high, get out of bed and face every day with hope, a smile and grand plans for a better life. If they can do that, the least I can do is to help raise money for a cancer-fighting foundation and get off my butt and go for a few bike rides.

The 2010 schedule includes another stop in Seattle, June 19-20. I've signed up for the 45-mile bike ride and given myself a minimum fundraising goal of $500 (which I hope to beat before March 15. If I do, I'm re-upping my goal to $1,000). If you live near (or want to travel to) San Jose, Philadelphia, Seattle or Austin and want to be part of a LIVESTRONG Challenge yourself, please go become a part of Team Fatty. Elden (Fat Cyclist)'s goal is for Team Fatty to raise $1 million this year. Last year, they raised more than $800,000.

If you'd rather give to the cause, please consider supporting my fundraising goal. Every donation helps, even $5. Or $1. But please consider skipping one trip to Starbucks (just not today's, since it's World AIDS Day) or one meal out and donating that money to LIVESTRONG instead, so we can all fight cancer together.

Feel free to check out my blog which I will use for updates on reaching my fundraising and fitness goals: http://futurehotgirl.blogspot.com

------------------------------
The money I raise will go to support LIVESTRONG’s programs and services, which inspire and empower people affected by cancer. If you or someone you know is diagnosed, these resources will help face the challenges of cancer, head on, and live life on your own terms.

Please support me as I make a difference in the cancer fight through my participation in Team LIVESTRONG. Thank you!
