Who Do You Race For?

Who Do You Race For?



It's not a rhetorical question. Who do YOU race for?

Tomorrow I will lace up my trail runners and attempt to complete my first ultramarathon, the Rocky Raccoon 50 mile Trail Run.

Tomorrow I will be an Athlete For a Cure. Racing in honor of those in the fight against prostate cancer.

Tomorrow I will wear with pride this shirt given to me by Miss Winter Vinecki and her mom, Dawn. Click here to be introduced to TeamWinter.

Who Do You Race For?

Stay tuned...

I'm a part of Team in Training, which means that I run for all those who are battling Leukemia & Lymphoma. It makes the long runs a little easier to know that their fight is so much tougher than any marathon.

Good luck on your ultra!

Very cool that you ran for TeamWinter! You get to be an amazing athlete that runs 50 miles AND a hero all in one fell swoop!
