My Story…
I was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer Nov 19, 2023. I was a healthy 66 year old woman who had 7 weeks ago completed Gran Fondo Whistler 124 bike race with my best time in 4 tries. Healthy ultramarathoner, hiker, cyclist who trained 2 x week with weights. Shocked was an understatement for me, my friends and family.
Dec 1, 2023 I underwent a Whipple procedure ( big surgery), then started chemotherapy Jan 29- Aug 6 , 2024. I recovered well, at 6 weeks resumed running regularly, training at Freestyle fitness ( they were so awesome in my journey), hiking and cycling.
Traveled to Australia Jan - Feb 2025, Ireland July @ did and 8 day hiking trip, ran a half marathon with family and friends at Achill Island there 😀
Many hiking, peak bagging, cycling trips with friends and family.
Jan 29, 2026 the cancer had returned in my liver now. Devastated 💔 BUT with the support of family @ friends started chemotherapy in February. I will walk this 5 km proudly @ encourage you to join me
