2nd Annual Love My Life Virtual 5K

Registration is now open for the 2nd Annual Love My Life Virtual 5K ~ October 16th. It is unbelievable that we are coming up on two years since Liz took her angel wings. Though I host other virtuals throughout the year, none is more dear than this one. Each year I will try to incorporate a piece of Liz's life; something she loved, and always with the message she embodied, "Love My Life". She didn't love having cancer but having cancer made her appreciate every aspect of life, and she was darn sure going to live it! This year the medal depicts her love of a warm sunny day at the beach, and the nickname she adored hearing, "Lizard".

 

To register, click on the buy button to the right...

 

As always, this is to raise money to find a cure. Proceeds (all minus cost) this year will benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and The Lymphoma Research Foundation.

 

Though this is a virtual event (which means you don't even have to move off your couch), I hope you'll get out and embrace life by doing any activity you enjoy, and for those of you local, I invite you to join me and Team Love My Life in Irvine for LRF's Lymphomathon (5k) on October 26th. This is the day I will be earning my Love My Life bling!

There is no cost to join/walk with us. Here's the website to join: http://www.lymphomathon.org/orangecounty2013/teamlovemylife4liz

The medals are 2.5" die-cast with color and all yellow is glitter :) The registration button is to the right. I will order medals in time for them to get to you by the 16th (U.S. anyway). Also, I just recently learned (thank you Cara/Running In Sanity) that if you are viewing from a mobile device, you can scroll to the bottom and click "view web version", then you'll be able to see the register button. Let me know if that works, I'm still using a crackberry/lol.

 

If you are joining us for the Lymphomathon on the 26th and want me to give your medal to you that day, after completing the 5K, please let me know when you register.

 

As always, thank you SO much for your support, and for making a difference in a future life.

Love My Life key chains!

What better way to keep that message close by than holding our keys! One is $8, each one after that is discounted by $2. Proceeds (after cost) will benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Megan's Wings, and the Lymphoma Research Foundation.

 



 

What is Megan's Wings? Check out their wonderful organization here: www.meganswings.org and join me for their 9th annual 5k in memory of their beautiful daughter, Megan, on Saturday, September 28th in Upland. Links to register are on their website.

 

Then... Join me and Team Love My Life in Irvine for LRF's Lymphomathon (5k)on October 26th. I will use that venue to walk my miles for Liz's Angel Date virtual 5k. Stay tuned for those medals coming soon :)

Last Chance Virtuals & Cookbooks

I still have a few medals left from my last three virtuals: Northern Lights 5k (10), Mad About a Cure (8), and Visions of a Cure (7). There's a picture and Paypal drop box located to the right, below the TNT widget. Medals will ship the Saturday following your order. I'll update numbers available as they change.

 

 

Also for sale are Cooking Up A Cure II Cookbooks featuring art by my sister, Liz. There are also two boxes of notecards still available. All proceeds benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The story behind the featured art is also to the lower right.

 

Stay tuned for the Love My Life virtual to commemorate her Angel date in October. Proceeds for that will benefit The Lymphoma Research Foundation and The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

 

Thank you...Shellee
