Overview

God has given me another year to run!  Last year I only was able to run the last half of Chicago since I was in the middle of chemotherapy.  I was honored to jump in and run with my friend Staci and we finished together--she qualified for Boston! 

My ONLY goal for Chicago is to complete the entire race this year.  I celebrated one year of survival on August 15th--I have stage 4 stomach cancer.  Every day God gives me I am grateful for!  I am a living miracle!

Please check out my blog that takes you through my last year's journey with stomach cancer!  www.beccascancer.blogspot.com

Here's my running friends!

 

These are my running girl friends. My friend Staci (left front)  had our families all out for a cookout last weekend (it was actually her birthday), but she surprised us wth this cake!  (I'm holding the cake, and Melissa is on my left.  In the back is Stephanie, Kelly, Beth, and Lisa).  Lisa, Kelly, and Staci will all be in Chicago this weekend!  Staci will be running with me. (My hubby is so excited to get to share a hotel room with all these girls!!--poor guy!) 

The other picture is of our office.  Two of my friends/coworkers shaved their heads bald when my hair fell out--their hair grew a lot faster than mine.  The photo was from this past winter.

I'm feeling  alittle better today.  Still have a bad headache and the body aches, but I can eat.

Thank you for your kind words.

Becca
