Why did you join TNT?
I joined TNT for a variety of reasons… finding a cure for blood cancers, folks to run with, and making tons of great friends.

What was your best fundraiser?
A fun one… raising $$ at work… folks cutting down on soda during the day and then having them give me the money they would normally spend.

Most memorable TNT moment?
Crossing the finish line in team purple at RnR San Antonio

What would you have done differently during the season if you could start over?
Gone to more weekly trainings with the team

Do you have any other words of wisdom for our participants?
Keep training, keep believing that you can complete the event, and know that what you are doing is a fraction of what the folks going through treatment.
