Another reason to smile!

Every weekend, the team in training eastern PA team meets for a group practice. We have a quick team meeting, then head out for a run/walk. We generally do our long runs together-it is really great. Yesterday the full marathon team did our first double digit run. It was 30 degrees-we lucked out on the weather!

Before we start out, we have a brief meeting. The organizer generally gives us a quick mission moment to remind us why we are training-to help find a cure for blood cancers. I was very happy to share that Lori's PET/CT scan came back showing that she is in REMISSION!!! The entire team erupted in applause. None of them know her, but each one celebrated her victory!

It was the easiest 10 miles I have ever done!

Meg,
It was great seeing you yesterday. You look great just like a marathoner!! Keep up the great training, I know you'll continue to do well. I am up to an hour walking with Snickers, feeling stronger each day.
Love ya, Lori
