On October 17, 2010, I had planned to run the Nike Women’s half marathon in San Francisco in memory of Bob Norling. Unfortunately, a broken foot has required me to postpone my memorial fundraising run to 2011. I’m crushed, but I’m hoping that “better late than never” applies here.
This is where you will be able to keep track of my rehabilitation and training.
So why am I running in Bob’s memory? Bob was a fighter, and it seems horribly unfair that lymphoma could beat someone who faced cancer with such such strength and humor. As I looked at the “in lieu of flowers” note in his memorial program, I realized that I could do more than write a check and move on. I could share Bob’s story and inspire others to write their checks. Because without money, there’s no research, and without research, there’s no cure.
If you would like to donate to my 2011 fundraising efforts, please email me for more information.
