Hi, I will be running the Philadelphia Marathon on November 18, 2012 and raising funds for pediatric cancer with Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. Please join me in this race to complete my first marathon and reach our goal of raising $500 by the day of the race. Any contributions will be greatly appreciated. I will post on Facebook updates and results from the race (I am confident I will finish!). As many of you know, I trained hard for the 2012 NYC Marathon that was cancel because of the storm, but I could not wait until next year to face the challenge of running my first 26.2 miles. Thanks to Team Lemon I was offered an entry to the 2012 Philadelphia Marathon (it had been sold out for months). I am very grateful for the chance to race with this team and the opportunity of making this race more meaningful by raising funds for this important cause. I am super exited about the race and can't wait to face this challenge! Thanks! Javier
