Hi Emily and Maddie. I found your site while reading the Runner’s World Olympic Trials coverage, and was moved to donate to Two Trials. I’m running the Boston Marathon but am even more excited to watch your race and see you and all the other amazing women compete. I’ve forwarded your story to my Boston training group so that they can all send their collective good wishes to you and Maddie- we’ll be cheering for you in Boston!! You are SUCH an inspiration.

Good luck Emily and Maddie. Our thoughts and prayers are with you both. My wife is a breast cancer survivor, having been diagnosed 4 weeks before our second child was due in early 2006. Running has helped her reclaim her fitness and some measure of control over her body. Our two year old daughter and 10 year old son run inside and outside the house with the sublime abandon that children often muster.

Agreed. Fun time on one of the first non-wintry evenings. (So many pale legs suddenly on display!) I’m proudly wearing my Two Trials bracelet, my first-ever cause bracelet.

That was a wonderful even last night and I was so glad I could be a part of it. You and Maddy are truly an inspiration as well is Sherry and Kristin. Good luck to you all on the 20th!

I’m glad that it went well, and was bummed that I got sick and had to skip it. I’m sure that you all were happier for not having had me there though; I’ve had a nasty cough and sore throat since last weekend.
