wow. marathon weekend is here! i'm overwhelmed and my heart is full with gratitude. i'm so grateful for my friends and family who have supported me these past few months. i'm so grateful for the wonderful people i've met and the stories i've heard about strong fighters of this disease. i'm in awe of the courage, determination and pure guts of cancer patients and i am humbled and oh-so honored to be running on sunday for them and for the lance armstrong foundation. i am not a good writer. but even if i was, words would not be able to accurately express what this experience has meant to me. it has been worth every early saturday morning, every pop of an advil, every.single.step.
my ipod playlist is set. my nails are painted black (i always paint my nails black before a race...shows i'm tough :P). my bright yellow liveSTRONG tutu is made. the training is done and all that's left to do is go out there sunday morning and pick a fight with cancer. those austin hills will bleed yellow.
game on, cancer.
