I just wanted to give a big thank you to all my family, friends, and supporters for your donations to Q’s Quest for the Johns Hopkins Departments of Neurology & Neurosurgery. I surpassed my goal and raised over $5,200 dollars for the cause. I couldn’t be happier, and you all have made a huge difference toward finding a cure for brain cancer. I’m sure my friend John is smiling down from heaven right now.
I also want to thank my friends who ran the Rock ‘N Roll New York 10K with me in Prospect Park, Brooklyn. Due to an injury, I was nervous that I may not be able to run the race, and thought I would have to walk it. I hadn’t run in a month, and on race day, I decided to go for it. I made it through 6.2 miles without being able to train properly, and I did it with 9 minute miles (I was originally hoping for 8:30s when I was able to train), so I am extremely happy with how everything went. I have no idea how I was able to do it, but I appreciate my friends that ran with me, and I know I must have had an angel carrying me through. 🙂
Up for this week: trying to nurse my sore legs back into shape! Hope you all have a great week!
XO,
Gina
