Help me fight for a cure, TODAY!
You have the power! TODAY I want to tap into the power of the internet and social media (Twitter, Facebook, blogs, etc.) to raise $500 in ONE day for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS). My ultimate goal is to raise $4,000 by April.
You have the power to help! What can you do?
A. Donate! If just 100 people donate $5 (or more) each, I will have met my goal for the day, and you will have been a part of it. Go to my donation page at: http://pages.teamintraining.org/mi/cmc10/jillduffy
B. Update your Facebook Status. Let your friends and family know about my goal.
Here are some sample updates for you to copy:

Help me save lives
In April I will be running the Country Music Half Marathon in Nashville, TN in honor of those I know who are personally affected by blood cancer. I am raising funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) as a participant in their Team In Training program and I'm asking you to help by making a donation to my fundraising campaign.Please use the link below to donate online quickly and securely plus learn more about my progress. You will receive a confirmation of your donation by email and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation.

Each donation helps accelerate finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. More than 823,000 Americans are battling these blood cancers. I am hoping that my participation in Team In Training will help bring them hope and support.
On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, thank you very much for your support. I greatly appreciate your generosity.
Thank you,

I did it!
In case you missed it on Facebook or Twitter:
I PASSED THE BAR EXAM!
That's right folks. Just one swearing-in ceremony away from being a real lawyer.
I also got a real job.
Life is good.

Oh. Hello.
Hello peeps.
I have done a couple of runs since I last popped in. I also had the flu.
Feeling better again and hoping to do a small 5k this weekend to see if my recent speed work is actually working.
