I have done both of my marathons for Team in Training.

Hello All,

It has been a long time since I posted!! Over a month!!

It has been an emotional month.  On July 10th I found out one of the 2 people I had completed my 2 Team in Training Marathons for died. He was only 8 years old and had spent the last 2 years fighting Lymphoma. It was a very large blow to me. I spent over a week bursting into tears. Was a very difficult time. About the time I was dealing better with that I started not feeling well.

Continued in Part 2……

On Saturday June 20th I was one of the course sweepers for Mayor’s Full Marathon. I was a course sweeper for Team in Training. GO TEAM! I have now completed a full marathon and a half marathon and swept for Mayors. I really like the feeling of finishing a marathon.

I do marathons in honor of 2 friends/choosen family Bill and Bryant. I plan on doing more of them! I am hooked. The feeling of crossing the finish line is like no other! Not to mention Team in Training is a great reason to do them. Everyday we still have people dying from blood cancers. Treatment has come a long way but it is still not fully developed. And until that time I choose to kick cancers butt one step at a time!

I actually missed the gym last week. It was nice having the rest week off but at the same time it feels great to be back at the gym.
