Welcome to Gotta Run
Bruce Deaton's website
Every 9 minutes a Leukemia, Lymphoma or Myeloma patients loses their battle with these dreaded diseases. Your gift of $50 could be just what is needed to find the cure!!
Through research funded by TEAM in TRAINING, the cure rates for the most common forms of childhood leukemia to 80%, although good, NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
So if you had to choose to only save 8 of every 10 children, which would ones would you choose?? That is how I can get out the door each day, knowing that every step I take may get us one step closer to a cure!
I will continue my efforts until a 100% cure is found.

I Run...
FOR THE MEMORY OF MY DEAR FRIEND, NATE RUFFIN, whose battle with Leukemia ended October, 2001. (Be sure to see WE ARE MARSHALL to get a glimpse of who Nate Ruffin was)
AND because of others, like Angie Richardson, a local mom from here in West Monroe who is both a marathoner and a survivor.
AND Lance Brown, a strong 13-year old friend from Rayville, LA.
AND Joe White, who courageously battles this disease while inspiring others with his powerful message at Promise Keepers conferences.
The cure for this disease can be just one step away. TEAM in TRAINING is one way I can carry on this mission and take that step.
