Lance Armstrong to Participate in the Rev3 Half Full Triathlon
Third Annual Event Benefits the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults
Sept. 19, 2012 – Baltimore – Today, the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults announced that Lance Armstrong will race side-by-side with fellow cancer survivors in the third annual Half Full Triathlon on Oct. 7, 2012 in Howard County, Md. Armstrong plans to take part in the half distance, which includes a .9-mile swim, 56-mile bike ride and a 13.1-mile run. He will compete in the cancer survivor wave, beginning at approximately 7:30 a.m.
“I am looking forward to competing alongside my fellow cancer survivors in the Half Full Tri,” said Armstrong, founder and chairman of the Lance Armstrong Foundation. “This race is a great example of what cancer survivorship is all about – not just surviving this disease, but truly living life on your own terms. My Foundation is proud to support the Ulman Cancer Fund and the great work they’re doing on behalf of young adult cancer survivors.”
“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Lance back to my hometown to support an event benefiting the organization I created with my family in college,” said Doug Ulman, Fund founder and president and CEO of the Lance Armstrong Foundation. “Lance’s support of the Ulman Cancer Fund and the young adult cancer movement has been and continues to be invaluable.”
“We cannot thank Lance enough for joining us in Howard County for the Half Full and providing an amazing boost of energy and excitement to our event,” said Ulman Cancer Fund President and CEO Brock Yetso. “Lance is arguably the most visible and vocal cancer survivor on the planet. Having him support our organization will ultimately help us support more young adults with cancer.”
“Half Full has always been about raising awareness and resources to support our programs in the young adult cancer fight,” said Ulman Cancer Fund COO and Half Full Race Director Brian Satola. “We thank Lance and the rest of our athletes for supporting an event that will enable us to change countless lives.”
The Half Full Triathlon will take place in Howard County, MD where the Ulman Cancer Fund was founded and currently has an office. “Howard County is excited host the 3rd Annual Half Full Triathlon and we look forward to welcoming Lance to town,” said Howard County Executive Ken Ulman. “We remain committed to the health and wellnessof our community and Lance’s participation in this event will only enhance our communities efforts in raising money and awareness to support the fight against cancer.”
Armstrong has been one of the Ulman Cancer Fund’s largest individual donors making a $100,000 gift to the organization in 2007 to help establish a young adult patient navigation program now being offered in three cancer centers in the Baltimore/Washington, DC Metro area. From 2004 to 2007, the Ulman Cancer Fund was the recipient of three LIVESTRONG community grants supporting educational resources created to support cancer patients and their families.
