We are only a few weeks away from the end of this year long challenge. We will reach our original goal of $5,000 for the Lazarex Cancer Foundation so it is time for the challenge to come to an end.

Over the next few weeks we will recap these past 12 months and this amazing journey. I hope you all enjoy!!!

THE BEGINNING: SHAWN HAS GONE CRAZY (but for a good cause)

In September of 2009 we announced the Lazarex Cancer Foundation Challenge. Originally was suppose to be 3 endurance events to create awareness and raise funds for the Lazarex Cancer Foundation. The goal was to raise $5,000.

The first e-mail was entitled “Shawn has gone crazy (but for a good cause)” The original first paragraph of that e-mail is below. MORE TO COME SOON!!


September 4th, 2009,
Some of you may know that Shawn has ran marathons and competed in sprint triathlons over the last several years. But this year he has decided to take on three crazy endurance events in four months; a 1/2 Iron triathlon (1.2 mi swim, 56 mi bike, 13.1 mi run), the Hartford Marathon (26.2 mi run), and the Disney Goofy Run (13.1 mi run followed by full 26.2 mi run the following day). That's crazy if you ask me! But since it's all for a good cause I hope you will check out our safe and secure fundraising page to learn more about the charity we have chosen, Lazarex Cancer Foundation.
