LLS Resilience Challenge
Hi Everybody! Today I am sharing a fun challenge that you could join me in doing. It is the LLS Team in Training Resilience Challenge!
What is the challenge? It is a 30-day movement & fundraising challenge dedicated to supporting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.During the month of September, Blood Cancer Awareness Month, we challenge each participant to complete 50 miles in whichever way they prefer (running, walking, cycling, etc.) and aim to raise $500 towards our mission. Registration is free, and there is no fundraising commitment but we know the most resilient participants will crush the fundraising challenge. You can even earn prizes depending on how much money you raise. I have personally committed to running the full 50 miles and I’m already 5 miles in as of this morning.
So why am I doing this challenge? I actually have multiple reasons. First, I have been trying to get more cardio in each week and this can help to motivate me even on the hard days. Second, I volunteer for LLS and have been for over six years. They have been struggling to get donations during this time due to COVID. I want to help to remind people (if they are not struggling as well). Third, I have two family members and multiple friends that have had blood cancers. LLS has a mission to find a cure! I would love to raise $500 for them!
