You were all there with me! 700 runners this year, all decked out in teal or their own team shirts. My Onc is a runner and he and his whole office participate. If you have any of these events near enough to your homes, I hope you'll try to attend. I met so many survivors and their families. I spoke to one husband whose wife is an eleven year 3C survivor. He's an ex-marine and he had tears in his eyes as he talked about how it is to see his wife go through all she does. Hope everyone has a wonderful 4th!

    Thanks for sharing, Maria

    and showing how these runs are inspiring, emotional and life-affirming experiences.  I plan on participating if/when there's a run near me.

    Happy 4th!
