Five years ago marked the 15th anniversary of my mom's death from breast cancer. In honor of her memory, I combined my passion for triathlon and my interest in health and wellness to create racingawareness[dot]org. Through racing and the information found on this website, I raised awareness about cancer related issues and honored my mom's memory (as well as others whose lives were taken by cancer). Four years ago, I "raced" awareness about Jill Mason--her story is very inspiring. You can read more about Jill by clicking the "For Jill" tab in the upper left hand corner or by clicking here to go to Jill's website (jillmason[dot]com). Three years ago, inspired by a poster I saw while visiting the Monterey Bay Aquarium (pictured above), I "raced" awareness about ways to be kind to another mother, Mother Earth. Click on the green tab for more info. I'm also creating a database of other athletes who are racing awareness for causes as I hear about them. Click on the "Athletes" tab at left for a listing. I'm not updating much on this site these days and am using this as a"bookmark" for cancer and health information on the world wide web. Take care.
