Anyways, I just wanted to give props to those who still check the blog. Also, good job on remembering your password dad. Watch out cyberspace, here comes my father. Here is the post from yesterday...
The blog has been left neglected again for so long. I am telling you this whole work thing is way overrated. It totally cuts into my travel time, my lounging around the house time, and my blogging time. This will just be a quick one to put out a little word about a run this Sunday. No worries if you read this after the run has passed. I commend anyone who actually checks this between now and then as I would have given up on this site long ago. I think it may only be my mother who checks it these days.
Anyways, this Sunday, at the VA next to UCLA, there will be a 5K/10K for pancreatic cancer research. The 5K is at 8am and the 10K is at 8:30am. I will give props to anyone who does both. It would be great to see anyone out there so if you are so inclined, go to www.lacancerchallenge.com and register. My father has started Team Tyler and if you join our team, there may be a little something extra in it for you. A few guys from college will be coming out. One showdown to watch will be to see if John can actually kick down Tom in the last 800m. Another to watch will be Ross Conklin. See if he can end up with some hardware two years in a row. Finally, there is a hearty handshake waiting for anyone who can take down the cancer patient (me). Also, we will keep an eye out for the big guy that was my nemesis last year (check out the post from 10-29-2006).
Also, I want to extend an incredible amount of gratitude for all of you who have already joined the team and donated to the cause. I cannot express enough appreciation for your generosity.
Here is a pic with Ross from last year. I hope to see you out there. TN

Hey Tyler: So good to hear an update from you. You go guy!!!! Wish we could be there to join in the run.
Happy anniversary to you and Eva. It was one year ago that we flew down to join you on that happy day.
And, no, your mother is not the only one who checks your blog. All of us up in the Northwest check it regularly to get the latest and greatest news on you.
Love, Uncle Tom and Birken
Hi, Tyler
Just trying to figure out my google password (Dad had tried to post a comment). If this is published, you'll know I figured it out.
Love you,
Mom
Your wrong, Tyler!! Stephanie and I check your blog every couple days along with Uncle Tom and Birken! =) Nancy
Tyler,
Thanks for the plug. Yes, I will have T-shirts for Team Tyler runners. I'm planning a good 10K myself in a NAG (new age group) run. Maybe I'll beat my age.
Love Dad
Have a great race on Sunday, Tyler.
Zelda and her gang from Courtyard Fountains are rooting for you from Oregon!
We, too, check your blog frequently. A printed version is circulated at the "home." (Mom hates when I call it that!)
We'll be thinking of you all on Sunday.
Zelda, Bette and David
Hey, Tyler!
Here's another mom who checks your blog regularly--and finds it reassuring that you are often too busy living to write about it! But we love hearing about your travels--via plane, boat, or bike. You are AMAZING! Although Wally is recovering from his own cancer surgery (just last Monday) so we can't be with you in person, we will be running (or strollin'! :-) with you in spirit tomorrow--and cheering everybody on.
Hugs to you, Eva, and your parents,
Sue and Wally Gajewski
Aloha Tyler!
So great to talk story with you last week! It was a blast to finally catch-up!! Hope the race went well today! I was thinking about you yesterday when I went riding with some friends on the North Shore. I was thinking of all the times we would ride - measuring that BK 5K/10K Run course, over and over and over again :) Take care buddy!
With Aloha,
JB

Hey Tyler,
