Hour of Power Relay

At 5 pm yesterday, our team (along with nearly 100 other teams across the country) participated in the 3rd Annual Ted Mullin Hour of Power Relay for Cancer Research. An estimated 5,600 swimmers took part in the relay this year, easily exceeding the numbers from last year. This was a great event to increase awareness and promote the need for additional support for cancer research. I'm proud that our team was able to take part in the relay and raise some money, which will be going to The University of Chicago for additional sarcoma research. As if the event was not special enough, we were lucky to have two Carleton College alums and Ted Mullin teammates join us and speak to the team before we got underway. Thanks to Barb Marmet and Jen Gratz for making the event extra special.
