It Was All Yellow
On July 30, 2007 I lost my mother Marlene Halstead to bladder cancer. It was a heartbreaking experience for my family and I. Inspired by my Mom's optimism and her ability to look forward, even when we couldn't, I attended the Livestrong Challenge in Philadelphia a year after she died. I ran a 5k with my oldest brother, Clint. In the years since, we have grown into a team named in her honor, Marlene's Misfits, and have made the LIVESTRONG Challenge Philly our yearly pilgrimage to honor my Mom and so many others that we have lost or are still fighting this disease.
