I'm running this year's Promise Run to raise money for a cancer cure and research, as well as to honor those I love who have experienced cancer.  Many are in difference stages of their journey: some are continuing to win the fight, while others fought their battles with strength and grace until the end.

"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself: 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do." - Eleanor Roosevelt
