marathon monday: 6 weeks

Six weeks until the marathon. And while running is great and all, really this marathon is about the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and finding a cure for cancer.

This weekend, I was one of many who gathered to say goodbye to a great man who was taken too soon because of cancer. Guys. Cancer sucks. It was heart-wrenching to see so many people so beside themselves because this man wasn't supposed to be gone yet. He had been diagnosed just a few months ago. And now he's gone.

I wish we could have done more for him sooner. I wish we had a cure now. But we don't. And that fucking sucks.

But there are things we can do to help. You can give a small donation to my run, or hell do your own race fundraising to help find a cure. You can volunteer. There are so many options. Cancer doesn't need to be a death sentence.

That's all I've got today guys. Hug your loved ones. Tell them you love them.
