My post will be short tonight. Put simply, I am going to ask you for money. I hate asking for money, but I hate cancer more, and I was invited to participate in the Livestrong Philly Challenge... and... well... you know I like a challenge. So, I accepted.
I am no hero, and I have not done anything all that incredible. All I have done is lost a lot of weight, run a few marathons, and that's about it. The people who have really done something incredible are those who have battled cancer and won. The people who have really done something incredible are those who have lost their battle to this terrible disease. Their families and friends have triumphed and mourned. I think of what they have done and I am humbled. They have all suffered through challenges I never want to suffer through.
I pray for them, and, while I have given money to various organizations to support them, I have never really done much else. Now I can, and you can, too.
This is a challenge I have never attempted and have no idea what will happen. On August 19, I am going to fight for them. Please join me, pray for me, and support me through this. Most of all, please pray and support those who have done so much more than I can ever really imagine, and hope that I never have to live through it.
