Today I received some really great news. This is the best news I have heard in a long time. I have been accepted to run the 2011 Boston Marathon for The Dana Farber Marathon Challenge! I have been having positive thoughts about this for almost three months. Everyday that passed since I submitted my application, I constantly thought about running to support research a cure for cancer. The loss many have experienced with this disease has had a huge impact on families around the world. My personal experience with cancer has given me a gift. A gift of deeper awareness, humility, and appreciation. My motivation level is really high. I am going to put my all into training for this goal. And if this somehow has a small impact on fighting this disease, all the hard work will be well worth it. Please follow this link to donate to this cause:
