Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer

Here's what some recent Team Lemon participants had to say about their experiences:

“I will have to admit that I got beyond exhausted and then realized I was wearing a lemon suit and what it represented.  I thought about all the children that have to go through something as tough as cancer and quickly stopped my internal whining.  Finishing the race in a lemon suit was an honor!!"
–Steph McGill

“Sore muscles, leg pain, knee pain, back pain, so tired! I would do it all over again for Alex’s Lemonade Stand.  A great charity to promote.  We had a blast!”
–Steve Bicknell

“This was a once in a lifetime experience!”
–Tom Lord

“191 Miles. Race registration= $105, Air Fare= $200, Van Rental= $65, Running for Team Lemon= Priceless!”
–Alyson Rodgers

“It was so wonderful feeling so united as a team for such a great cause. The sense of camaraderie displayed by the team carried us all forward across the finish line. There was not a weak link in the bunch - everyone pulled their weight in every way, whether it was through utilizing the ALSF website for reaching and ultimately surpassing our fundraising goal of $1,200, or finishing each leg of the 190 miles from Miami to Key West.  Running with Team Lemon was a truly remarkable and unforgettable experience!”
–Margaret O’Callaghan

Here is an inspiring Team Lemon story:

A group of five cousins decided to take part in the Mardi Gras Rock and Roll Marathon in New Orleans. They knew that running a marathon would be physically and mentally demanding, but felt it was an attainable challenge. So while they were training, they decided it would be appropriate to also raise funds for children who are on a much more demanding path as they make their way through cancer treatments. With young cancer fighters as their motivation, these cousins finished the race in New Orleans, and raised nearly $8,000 for ALSF in the process!

Any endurance athlete can be a part of Team Lemon to achieve their personal goals and help achieve the ultimate goal of finding a cure for childhood cancer!
