I am happy to be able to join the Rock On Team for the ninth year to raise  money to support research to find a cure for this devastating disease.   The Rocks and Brass families were an amazing team in supporting Cristy, an inspiration to all. 

Since I cannot make it to the Cheaspeake Bay Open Swim this year, I am participating with a virtual event.......a one day, two state mini Triathlon .

 In fact I completed it last week in Metuchen NJ and  Eagles Mere Pa.  I started with a mile swim at the Y in Metuchen NJ. I then drove 3 hours to Eagles Mere Pa and  I did a 24 mile bike ride ... 2000 feet ascent (not admitting to how long that took)..I topped off  with a 2.38 mile walk around the lake ending at the Edgewood Cottage for approval from Peg and O'Ryan.  

I dedicate this endeavor my sister in Maryland , my nephew in New Hampshire,my college roommate in Rhode Island,  and to other relatives and friends who have been cared for at centers in Tucson, Boston, New York, Denver, Chapel Hill, Somerville NJ and Tampa. May the collaborative research efforts of all cancer centers finally conquer the “emperor of all maladies” .........Soon !

Here’s to a sunny and calm day ....................in the Chesapeake Bay !
