Cancer Fundraising

The totals are in and we raised just under EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS for cancer research with our endurance bike ride. Unbelievable for a single event! I told Jon that I would like to take the Team In Training model and apply it specifically to pancreatic cancer that is sadly lacking in research dollars. Instead of bike rides and marathons I would propose backpacking/hiking trips in honor of Jon's passions (sorry, I just don't think the hunting thing would fly!) TNT does do hikes on a fairly limited basis so I would like to give their program a go and replicate their protocol.
