Well, 10 days after my last post, stating I had 152 days to prepare for the Ogden Marathon, I was diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma. It has been a long journey, but I am 24 hours away from completing my 18 weeks of chemotherapy! I figure 10 days of recovery from my last dose, then I have 90 days to prepare to BQ at Erie Marathon on Sept. 13. I have never particularly enjoyed training in the summer, but I am going to have to suck it up, as I basically have not run in close to 6 months ... good thing I love a challenge!
