Each year since 1996, our local Leukemia & Lymphoma Society chapter has proudly participated in the Houston Marathon's Run For A Reason charity program. This amazing program includes now 60 charities in the Houston area. Runners in both the Chevron Houston Marathon and Aramco Houston Half Marathon can participate in their race and raise funds for one of the non profit organizations in the program.
The January 2015 race marked the fifth year in a row that together, charity runners raised more than $2 million! The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was the "Top Charity With A Training Program". Thanks to our Houston runners including Team Super Sue, we raised almost $200,000 and received our top fundraiser award at today's luncheon.
To everyone who continues to make the LLS a successful part of the Run For A Reason program, we thank you! Let's keep up the great work. Registration for the 2016 Houston Marathon is online now HERE.
