Approaching 52 years on this earth, I have decided to challenge myself more than I ever have by getting in shape to be a part of Team Dream 2009. Team Drean 2009 is a group of friends with the crazy idea to bike across the USA to raise awareness and funds for lung cancer research: 3,415 miles, 9 bikes, 7 weeks, 2 oceans, 1 cure.
Our friend Elyse Aussenberg was diagnosed with lung cancer in May
Approaching 52 years on this earth, I have decided to challenge myself more than I ever have by getting in shape to be a part of Team Dream 2009. Team Drean 2009 is a group of friends with the crazy idea to bike across the USA to raise awareness and funds for lung cancer research: 3,415 miles, 9 bikes, 7 weeks, 2 oceans, 1 cure.
Our friend Elyse Aussenberg was diagnosed with lung cancer in May 2009. Elyse is the healthiest person we know: never smoked, eats well, works out every day like a madwoman, and still came down with this awful disease at the age of 52.
Our goal is to raise enough money to make a difference. We're not gonna bike across the country for 75 bucks. But $100,000 will fund a research grant to make a real difference in lung cancer diagnosis and treatment, and 100% of the donations to Team Dream 2009 will go toward this research grant. All donations are tax deductible, of course. For more information go to http://www.teamdream2009.com/ or contact me at g_whitten@msn.com
