This has been a busy summer especially for my children. All four are involved in some short of running marathon. Trish and Tash, are both competing in the Nike Women's Challenge in San Francisco, Ryan is involved is Race Chartities a new organizations to raise money for early detection of cancer and Tim is training for his second Ironman event.
He is entered in Ironman Florida on Nov. 3 in Panama City. Tim has two goals; complete the 140 mile race in less than 12 hours and raise $15,000 for StepStone a transitional housing program for women and children survivors of domestic violence.
I am hopeful that by posting this in a blog we can find other runners, bikers or swimmers who would like to help Tim on his second gaol. As of this posting he has raised a little over $3,000.
Tim is a graduate of the University of Kansas, and works for CareerBuilder in Kansas City. Come on Jayhawk fans lets help Tim reach his goal!
Please check his website to learn more or his own blog about his Ironman experience. Just click on the headline to check his progress of make a donation.
We would especially welcome any runners who would also like to help victims of domestic violence. If you would like to know more about StepStone the website is: http://www.stepstoneks.org/
