I’m sorry that the blog has not been updated in a long time. It seemed most people were unaware of it and didn’t check into it, so I was updating people by e-mail and facebook.

I ran the Flying Pig Half Marathon in Cincinnati the first weekend of May. I’ve been trying hard to run a 12-13 mile run once a month to hang on to that distance so I don’t have to build back up for the Columbus Half Marathon.  I decided to run 12 miles today since I start chemo again on Friday and it was cool this morning.  I don’t know what happened, but somehow I ended up with a tendonitis in my ankle that was so bad that I was starting to limp by mile 6, so I stopped to prevent further injury.  It became even more painful and made me limp around today.  I never have the energy to even think of running while on chemo, so it will be forced into rest for at least a week and hopefully will be better.

I have already received my first donation toward brain cancer research.  I hope to have a letter to send out to many of you to help the ROC on! team raise some funds this year to help us find a cure for brain cancer.

Please let me know if you’d like to join us for the Columbus Marathon, Half Marathon, or 5K on October 18th, 2009.   I hope we have beautiful weather again as we did last year.
