This memory came up on my Facebook:
I had come upon this lady at about mile 23 in Central Park and the back of her Tank said "You think a marathon is tough, how about Breast Cancer"
So, I had to stop/chat and told her my saga and we are both "Still Standing" five years later💙

Fight on Erica and all my Brothers too!

What an awesome memory to pop up. The smiles on all your faces puts a smile on mine. My daughter just ran the NYC Marathon. Her old IT band injury decided to join her on the run, but she still managed to finish in 4:38:05. Yay!!!!
Oh, that's so awesome, I loved how many people were out there on the course!
I had Tequila shots, and there were a bunch of Italian gents with a jug of Red wine and I took a huge swig of it and kept going
That's fantastic!
And there were a bunch of guys having beers, I stopped and asked for one and they were shocked that I would stop and have a beer. In a subsequent NYC marathon I got a White Claw from a bunch of young ladies, who taped me chugging it
I love how you enjoy life to the fullest with a cheery attitude. My husband has "walked" 2 5k's this year. GB Lambeau Field with our daughter & and her boyfriend (they drove to Wisc from Ontario) and the 5K TCS Toronto Waterfront marathon. He walked, I ran. LOL
Yay, for him getting out, that will elevate his mood and offset ADT side effects, if he's on those meds. As I've posted before "Life's too short to stay home"
Fight On

Oh, Mahalo for that comment about enjoying Life with a cheery attitude despite #stageivpca. I love to just get out and experience things and I usually will post my treks here and maybe even a Google Photos album. Attitude is 1/2 the Battle and obviously I haven't given up alcohol
this is great. Its so amazing that your ran the NY marathon.
You give each of us some wonderful pictures thoughts and ideas.
Keep fighting randy.
I ran cross country in college but I can't imagine enduring a marathon now. I think it would wreak havoc with my atrial fibrillation prone heart but kudos to you.
With ADT induced anemia and Low Hgb, not in any marathon shape anymore
Great to hear you doing nicely -- hopefully you are on lesser meds now than 5 years ago -
glad to hear - I see you still doing the marathons - so nice and motivating
Hi, after 8 years on ADT, I don't have the stamina to complete a marathon or even a 1/2. My last official race was the Zion 1/2 in 02/2020. Now, I just do hikes up here in Tehachapi. I'm about 40% of the Great Wall virtual hike

Fight on, Hike on

One other question - what medicare / supplemetal plans do you find the best for your ongoing treatments related to PCa
Ya godda love Randy. Always staggering across the finish line.
I always finished upright despite alcohol consumption :-).
I had beers at a bunch of marathons. NYC and the San Diego Rock n Roll has the most alcohol, People in NYC have been drinking most of the day and they will gladly give one. In NYC, I stopped to get a gatorade and the Volunteer had a bag and I asked what it was and he said Tequila and I asked for a shot, then an older person asked what he was doing, and he said that I wanted a shot, so the lady said go ahead 
Around mile 4 in SD the neighborhood has multiple tables set up with Bloody Marys, Mimosas, and beers.
At the Honolulu marathon I had fried Spam and a beer and at Surf City around mile 17 they have bacon and beer. It's usually on Super Bowl Sunday, so people have RV's along the bike path
Ten years after - PSA was 552.2 on 10/13/14. Now at.... :-)
5-years Today ... and counting! :)
Hi Guys & Gals, I posted this 2 days ago with zero responses. Scientists in the UK have found 5 very specific bacteria (3 never seen before)
Is biopsy good from 2 years ago?
It is likely mRNA technology is going to be what cures cancer in the next 5 to 10 years
