LIVESTRONG Mantra

Who would have thought that a Letter to the Editor I submitted to my local paper, would turn into these great articles? Many thanks to the Del Mar Times & Solana Beach Sun for publishing the story today.

Click here for the Letter to the Editor I wrote last week (Del Mar Times)...which spawned the following article that was published today in the Del Mar Times & Solana Beach Sun newspapers today! http://www.delmartimes.net/news/273998-del-mar-cancer-survivor-athlete-finds-support-through-livestrong-foundation

This was all about reaching out to my local community. This month is also National Leukemia & Lymphoma Cancer Awareness month so anything I can do to shed light on cancer is my small way of paying it forward.

For those that are battling cancer, or supporting someone you love that is, check out the following resources:

Lance Armstrong Foundation: www.LIVESTRONG.org
Leukemia & Lymphoma Society: www.LLS.org
Planet Cancer (for Young Adults w/ Cancer): www.PlanetCancer.org

There are some great ways to get involved in our local community, too:
