About this blog

I am running with the NF Endurance Team to raise money for the Children’s Tumor Foundation (CTF).  Because I live with Neurofibromatosis and am challenged by the tumors and threat of more growth, I am taking on that challenge, one step at a time.  Already a 5-time marathoner, I welcome this opportunity to run and raise money for research that someday there will be a cure for NF.

Here is a little bit about the NF Endurance team, from their website:

WHO WE ARE

We are a charity based endurance team where participants can join in events around the country to raise awareness and research dollars that enable treatments and a cure for neurofibromatosis. Unlike other charity based teams, we structure our fundraising system on incentives, not contracts. Participants are encouraged to fund raise through contributions made to a personalized Web site and donations sent by mail.

OUR MISSION

In support of the Children’s Tumor Foundation, the NF Endurance Team offers the opportunity for individuals to participate in team endurance sports to raise money for research, promote awareness, and provide a network of caring support for those suffering with Neurofibromatosis and their families.

Please consider a donation.
