Hi, I’m Kevin Serrapede and I live and work in Bend, Oregon. I am running the Eugene Oregon Marathon April 29, 2007. Since many of us have experienced the aspects of cancer on our friends and family’s lives, I am calling this “Run For the Roses in Your Life”.

My friend Rose Serigano, along with her family, fought this disease for over two years. If Rose was your friend, you could never have a better friend.

So, please join me in donating in the fight against cancer.

Follow my progress at the "Forum" link above.You can download the donation form at the "Donate" link above too. You can also honor or commemorate the “Rose of Your Life” on that form. 100% goes to the OHSU Cancer Institute. You may also designate a specific cancer research effort on that form, if you prefer.

Have some fun with it, watching this “slightly over the hill” 58 plus years guy run (“run” used generously) a marathon. Thanks very much and you all will be in my thoughts as I float alongside the beautiful 26.2 miles of the Willamette River in Eugene Oregon.
