Running Sucks!

Cut Week

Cut week has been a breeze. Short, quick meals consisting of nothing but protein and rabbit food has been especially easy on the state of mind. Actually, really surprised by my energy level…

Tonights menu, halibut steaks with something that is far too good for me.

Getting into Marathon shape sucks…

Beach Running

Partly sunny, 50ish and the beach of the Pudget Sound; not a bad way to test the body on an 8+mi run.

Here is to light feet.

5mi @ 5a

Kicking off the week with a nice 5mi run at 5am. Is this boot camp? Have I mentioned running sucks?

Back at it! 35 wks until another 26.2. The first step, lose winter weight and get into “training” shape?

Two things about this run:

1. Hills to Green Lake, suck.
2. Hills on the way back, suck.

Welcome to Running Sucks!

Finally!

129 days, 13:48 Until Race Day!

Thank you for your continued visits. The support has been amazing. Many have visited this page, and have read the stories. The stories of triumph and the stories of sadness. These stories are far too common. We do have a choice and we have an option. I’m not suggesting that this race or my efforts are going to cure Children’s Cancer; but what I’ am suggesting is that with our efforts we can all come as one, to try and defeat this terrible disease.

With a small donation, (<—– donation link to the left and at the bottom of this post.) our efforts will help provide the funding needed for research. It will help assist in the groundbreaking treatment Chloe received and it will help the next kid with Rhabdomyosarcoma reach the age of 18…

Please support the movement, and if you see me wearing the shirt in the gym… Come say Hi…

Secure site to Champions for Children’s Cancer… Thank you in advance.

Chloe’s Story

mrglynn — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 13:56:50 +0000

26.2 miles is a mild challenge compared to these brave souls to fight everyday… Meet Chloe. In 2000, Chloe was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Chloe like many of the children diagnosed with cancer benefit so much from the research done by Children’s Cancer Research Fund.

While undergoing treatment, Chloe’s family heard about groundbreaking work being performed at the University of Minnesota Cancer Center, supported by CCRF. Chloe received an umbilical cord blood transplant, a treatment pioneered at the University Cancer Center. Today with the help of this groundbreaking treatment Chloe is now a healthy 11 year old…

In order to continue these pioneering efforts, the Cancer Center’s Stem Cell Biology program relies on the assistance of the Children’s Cancer Research Fund. This support allows researchers to expand their studies and continue further development of these approaches for treating cancer patients.

There are far too many children and their families who, like Chloe are faced with cancer. These stories are gut-wrenching and painful to read; however, with every painful story is a blessing.

Help these children fight for the chance to be children again…

Donate today to the Children’s Cancer Research Fund…
