October 30, 2014 Update

Please join me to pay tribute to those affected by cancer. Together, let's commemorate the lives of those who left us too soon and of those who are currently undergoing treatment and are determine to be cancer free soon! I am inviting you to join me for all or part of the 120 mile run across the Long Island or to please support my effort by donating funds to either of two organizations deeply involved with helping those who are battling this horrible disease.

Donations for this annual 120-mile fundraising run across Long Island can be made to two not-for-profit cancer organizations. One is mostly dedicated to breast cancer and the other to all types of cancer under the wings of Gildas Club.

I would love to encourage you to think about someone who is or was affected by cancer and to pay tribute this person by making a donation to help eradicate this illness.

During this years run, I am personal paying tribute to my friends who succumbed to cancer in the past year: Ojars Stickis (a great long distance runner), Stan Friendlander (a great long distance runner), and Anne Cedrone, a great friend.

We all know that we cannot take the pain away from others, but we can help by donating funds to support patient treatment activities and to speed the process to finding a cure.

Please join me and together we can make the difference. We can each add our brick to building a cancer-free world. But we need to make a joint effort and fight these illnesses by donating funds to the organizations that collaborate with scientists and patients to try to eradicate cancer.

About my run: I will start my run on November 15th from Montauk Point at 9:00 a.m, proceed along Route 27A, and finish on November 16that the North Moore Community Park in Queens. [Please contact me directly at sahararunner@yahoo.com if you would like to run with me for the entire 120 miles or for any portion of this run.]

Thank you so much for your support and contribution.
