Teva Pharmaceuticals Presentation

Rehoboth Beach Half Marathon & Marathon
What a great weekend I had at the Rehoboth Beach Half Marathon & Marathon! I opted to run the half since I haven’t had enough training volume due to chemo treatments. And I had never run this race which made it a fun adventure on race day. For me, there’s something to be said for [...]
