These are writings about my training/running of the 2011 and 2012 Boston Marathons. I am hoping it will inspire others to enjoy this life and remind me of my experiences while training. In the summer of 2009 I was diagnosed with a rare and deadly cancer called chondrosarcoma. I have always wanted to run the Boston Marathon and combining this goal with bringing support to Dana Farber is the perfect combination. I hope you enjoy reading about my experiences.....

First Half Marathon November 17, 2010
I ran my first (unofficial) half marathon today. It went well. I did struggle a bit in miles 11 and 12. I did not bring water and I felt a little dehydrated towards the end. Overall, I learned alot from this run. I need some carbs and water when I run longer than 10 miles. This run was a different route than any I have taken before. I ran north towards RTE 28 and it was all up hill in the first half. I spoke with Dana Farber today and they said I am in the the final list of applicants. So I keep thinking positive.
