HOLY COW! Best run yet!!

Oh my goodness, I can barely believe that I just ran 10 MILES!! Thank you SO MUCH to Lindsey, Justin, and Alex for making this run my BEST YET! I'm currently spending the weekend in Ohio, and Alex and I are visiting my best friend from childhood and her husband. Along with Lindsey and Justin's dog Carli, Lindsey and Alex split the mileage running beside me and Justin and Lindsey/Alex rode along with us on bike. Having new scenery to take in, a perfect cool day, and excellent company made this an incredible run. It certainly didn't feel like I was running for nearly two hours!

I'm so blessed... I thank God everyday that he has given me a body that can carry me as far and a mind that will push me to finish. When so many people around the world are in hospital beds fighting their own battles with Leukemia, Lymphoma, and other cancers, I am running.

I am so grateful for this journey... I am learning so much about my body, feeling so strong and healthy, and reaching my goals one week at a time. What an incredible feeling! And I'm so thankful every moment that I receive a donation or raise awareness for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. THANK YOU to each of you who have supported me through every mile and every dollar. You keep me moving, and you bring us one step closer to finding a cure.
