Heart & Soul Marathons.

have walked alongside marathoners with MS. Since June of 1998, I have been a companion to my best-forever-friend from my childhood days. A malignant tumor was removed, along with his left glute, in February, 1998. Although recent tests indicate no evidence of that cancer, he continues his fourteen year battle with leukemia. His first marathon, NYC (5:57:54), was in November, 1998. His second, the National Capital Marathon (5:30:06), was in May, 1999. Our third marathon, the Marine Corps, 1999 (6:27:28) was done with the Leukemia Team In Training, and I am now looking forward to our next marathon together.

Although these three marathons were some of my slower times on the clock, it is no coincidence that they also rank as the 'best' times I have ever had in a marathon.

It is now, as of Sept. 23, 2000 only 15 days until the Steamtown marathon!

My husband (John) is also running Steamtown. This will be his first marathon and he is looking forward to it.

If you want more information about this oustanding marathon, which Runner's World called one of the ten fastest in the USA, then go here; www.steamtownmarathon.com/ and take a look for yourself. I will add that this year Jon Sinclair will be returning to speak to the runners on Expo day and I will also be one of the guest speakers. For those that will be at Steamtown; see you there!
