And we're off! I'm dedicating each mile of my Boston Marathon run to a child who is battling or has battled cancer.

Mile 1 is for sweet Ollie, 3. Here he is today with his brother.
@Ashtons_Legacy Mile 3 is for Emmy. Looking forward to seeing her grandma a few miles down the route.

Mile 4 is for Gabriella. She has inspired multiple pieces of legislation that boost funding for kids with cancer. @smashingwalnuts
Mile 5 is for our dear friend Karl. A beloved husband, father and son and the first person we ever knew who battled cancer as a child.

Mile 8 is for Vincent, 3 years old and the absolute cutest. @victory4vincey
Mile 10 is for Luca, who is battling at nearby Boston Children's Hospital as I run this race.
Mile 11 is for Ryan.
Mile 19, for Jonah. His amazing mama is about to help me run up heartbreak hill.
Mile 20, for Lenny.
Mile 24, for Sebastian

NEW: A video from April 2016 shows Liz Cheney’s Trump-backed primary Harriet Hageman rebuking Trump and enthusiastically endorsing Cheney for Congress. Hageman even cites her own Trump opposition in her Cheney endorsement.

“There’ve been and will continue to be concerted efforts to force true conservatives to sit down and shut up. Those efforts have never worked on me and I know that they will not work on and have no effect on Liz Cheney,” says Hageman, leading efforts to deny Trump the nomination.
Video of the speech was in CNN’s footage of the Wyoming GOP Convention from April 2016. cnn.com/2021/09/30/pol…

One year since diagnosis. We miss you and love you.
Still so surreal, right now Beans was coming out of surgery a year ago. We got some initial false hope it was a benign tumor.
Beans wakes on the Sept. 7th. Our world had changed. Two major surgeries, one life saving. A cancer diagnosis and our lives shattered forever. Unfair to us, but mostly to her. I share for awareness. That there’s still much to be done.

Biden: "I stand squarely behind my decision," to leave Afghanistan.
Biden:"It is wrong to order American troops to step up when Afghanistan's own armed forces would not."
Biden: "How many more generations of America's daughters and sons would you have me send to fight Afghanistan's civil war when Afghan troops will not? How many more lives, American lives, is it worth, how many endless rows of headstones at Arlington national cemetery?"
