I can be tough when I need to be. In high school, my ankles were so bad during football season that I started and played as long as I could before the inevitable SNAP that would put me on the sidelines for the rest of the game. At my Grandfather's funeral, I kept my composure, despite the fact that I more or less lived with him for several months. Heck, I even remained stoic when Bambi's mother was taken down at 300 yards, as well as when Old Yeller yelled no more.
On the very remote occasion, though, I have shed a tear or two as an adult. At Sheri's and my wedding, I had a couple of tears come out when I saw her walking down the aisle ("How could I be lucky enough to have someone like her be willing to spend the rest of her life with me?"). The tears came out again during the ceremony when, after meticulously planning to ensure that parents and step-parents were equally part of the ceremony, we realized that the florist forgot a third rose, which was to go to my Mother. I can neither confirm nor deny a tear coming out at our first child's breath (as he screamed bloody murder). The first ten minutes of the movie Up...well, that's a mulligan as the entire world cried at that part. There was also a close call during "Rainbow Connection" in the recent Muppets movie (perhaps it was allergies...someone in the theater was wearing some strong perfume).
That's more or less it for my crying, though...
...until about 3 weeks ago.
I was set up to break the 20-mile barrier for the very first time during my marathon training in early November. During this training run, I had Joe Taricani's "The Marathon Show" podcast playing through the earbuds, and I started off the run by re-listening to the last 20 minutes of Episode 213, which chronicled the 2013 Disneyland Half Marathon. I heard a bunch of friends' voices on there, and it really got me in the mood for the run.
Episode 216 started around mile 5, which highlighted the Newport Beach Race for the Cure. During this half-hour show, Joe interviewed many people who were survivors. But he also interviewed family members of those who have lost loved ones to breast cancer.
The Race for the Cure episode nearly did me in. It started echoing thoughts that I had during training for my first half marathon. I was stressing my body more than I probably should have; I didn't have a heart rate monitor for my first half, and I know that I was overdoing it with the pace...I finished most training runs with a pulse over 180, and the long runs found me exhausted around 8-9 miles in. I struggled through the training, but I kept thinking to myself that what I was going through was nothing compared to what those in cancer treatment go through. The miles I ran during this show were the fastest I ran that day.
Just a few days before my 20 mile training run, I saw Angelo Merindino's photo essay where he chronicled his wife's battle with breast cancer - a battle that she ultimately lost in late 2011. Let me warn you now that, if you have not seen the photo essay
before, click on the above link with caution. It is extremely powerful -
it is not an easy page to look at as you know what the bottom of the
page will eventually tell you. The pictures streamed through my mind as I ran. I then started thinking about a co-worker of my wife's who lost a similar battle to cancer over the summer. I thought about members of my wife's family who have battled breast cancer and have won. I thought about members of my running team who have fought breast cancer and are running farther than I ever will; about friends who have family members currently battling various forms of cancer; about a young boy I know recently diagnosed with cancer and agonizing about what he and his family have to be going through; about my grandmother losing her battle with pancreatic cancer.
I re-found my determination from my training for my first half. I buckled down and got down to business with this 20-mile run. I was struggling to fight back tears, though, as I continued to listen to the rest of Joe's show.
Later on in the run came Episode 218 of the Marathon Show. This episode had Joe interviewing runners in the 2013
MedTronic Twin Cities Marathon. The first story that got me was the
interview of a family of a man running his first marathon after a
stroke, and the source of pride in her voice hit me hard. Then, around
mile 22 on the course (and around mile 16 for me), Joe interviews a
woman completing her first marathon. When he asked her, "What's the
finish line going to mean to you?", she started to break down as she
answered the question. This episode inspired me for a couple of miles, and I had a surge of energy (the "runner's high").
The energy soon left, however, and I hit the proverbial "wall" around 18.5 miles in. Despite my attempts to pick it back up, my pace slowed by over a minute. The self-doubt and self-loathing that I am all too well-known for was bouncing around in my mind, and I wanted to throw in the towel; I was worthless. I'm failing at the training. I'm failing at my fundraising. I'm failing at being a good teacher. A good husband. A good father. A good person.
I managed to work up a mild trot for the last few feet until I heard the chirp that indicated I had completed 20 miles. I stopped my watch, fully expecting it to tell me that I can anticipate being swept up by the RunDisney folks and not being able to complete my attempt at a marathon finish.
I looked down at the statistics.
To complete a marathon, I had 6.2 miles remaining after 20 miles. According to my watch, if I start dead last with the balloon runner (the 16:00 pacer) at Disney World, I'll have 1 hour and 50 minutes to complete that last 10K. That's over a 17:40 pace per mile.
I can walk a 17:30 pace.
As I stared at the watch while standing on the trail that I was running on, the realization hit me that, barring a major injury, I was most likely going to complete my first marathon.
The first tear followed about 3 seconds later. It had to be the allergies.
As I write this, Team AllEars just unofficially passed the $60,000 raised mark for 2013. We have all committed not just to running a race in Walt Disney World as we have the fundraising requirement, too. I take the fundraising requirement just as seriously as I do the training for the race. I set a lofty personal goal this year...perhaps too lofty a goal at $1,500. With less than 6 weeks to go, your support has brought in around $400 so far on my behalf, and I am grateful for that. Traditionally, the bulk of the funds raised come in during the month of December. My fingers are crossed that this again happens...not just for me, but for the entire Team. As we make our final push in our training and in our fundraising efforts, please consider a donation. If you would like to donate on my behalf, please head over to my fundraising page. The amount donated does not matter; Even $1 donated is $1 more raised to help fight not just breast cancer, but all forms of cancer. While I would love to have your donation count towards my goal, you can also help others on the Team who may be struggling to achieve the $500 minimum. If you want to help someone else out, please go to our Team Fundraising page and click on a name who has less than $500 raised so far. Whether a donation comes in under my name or under someone else's name, the money all goes to the Avon Foundation.
I am sure there will be several opportunities for tear ducts to get a workout over Marathon weekend. Most of you will think that crossing that finish line will be one of them. Those who have been at a Team AllEars official Meet on the Saturday of Marathon Weekend also know what to expect. With this being our last year, I can only imagine what the main Meet will be like. This is an amazing, fantastic group of people who have dedicated countless hours trying to help rid the world of cancer. These men and women, current members and past members, are living proof that we can make a difference.
Damn allergies.

Team AllEars Donation Update
Well, the goal was $500, and WE MADE IT!!!!!
As I posted over on Facebook, I have been absolutely floored by the generosity of the people here. From our daycare provider to a breast cancer survivor to a childhood friend battling her own disease, from my postmaster to a group of online freaks who used to hang out at the same place, from family members to a family I met but one time in passing in the Disney World parks, you all have humbled me.
A big THANK YOU needs to go out to those who helped out by donating to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. If you did donate on my behalf and your name is not listed below (especially if you made an online donation), please let me know at cemushr@hotmail.com so we can link up your donation. If you made an anonymous donation online, again please let me know, and while keeping your anonymity, I'll add your total to the list below.
The race is coming up...quicker than I was expecting! If you would like to follow my progress in the half-marathon, you can sign up to receive e-mails/texts/etc at certain distance locations at http://live.activeresult.com/msg/MSG-signup.tcl?event_id=3 .

From 0 to 13...
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR HOW TO DONATE, PLEASE READ BELOW - instructions on how to donate are included at the end of this post!
Ten months…it was ten months ago that my craziest journey began. After hearing about all the experiences about the 2010 Disney World half-marathon, mostly from the Running to Disney, WDW Today, and Mousetimes podcasts, the idea of actually contemplating doing my own half-marathon crept into my mind. I won't rehash what I've already written; this entry takes me from my very first run on March 25th to today. I vividly recall thinking to myself as I was walking around the track that doing 13 miles at one time was going to be extremely difficult, if not impossible. Still, I remember the elation when I crossed the finish-line and noticed that I made that mile in under 16:00, which is the required pace to complete the half. April 6th was the day I took the big step and registered for the half, not having completed another run – my next run wasn't until a week after I registered, and it was a 2-miler. I walked 80% of it and still maintained a 15:39 pace.
With each successive week, I'd make a new discovery in the sport of running – things like: understanding what pronation was and that having the right shoes were a very importing thing to have; figuring out stride/gait/foot-plant/etc; and understanding that not every run will be the best one yet. The 2.5 mile threshold was crossed in late April, and my pace was its best yet (14:07). May 10th marked the first time I hit 3 miles, and the thought of doing that 4 times over in a mere 8 months was simply too much to ask. Just a few days later, I accidentally crossed the 4-mile mark. I skipped 5 miles and went directly to six in late June. Mid-July was meant for 7 miles, and early August for 8. The ninth month found me at nine miles – I liked it so much that I cleared 10 miles at the end of September. October 21st was what I consider the major milestone – 11 miles in just under 2:30. It wasn't so much the distance as it was the time. This was the first time I felt confident that I would actually be able to make the complete run in January and not be swept off the course. November 4th got me to 12 miles, and, finally, 13 miles was reached on November 23rd. It took over 7 months, but I'm just about there. Not only is the distance there, the time is, too. Using a run/walk ratio (thanks to Jeff Galloway for his training plans!), this 5'8", 250 lb sprinter completed 13 miles in just over 3 hours at a 14:04 pace – well below the 16:00 pace.
As I write this, we are a mere 4 weeks away from Marathon Weekend. I fear that I have peaked already and will regress before the run. I already feel it to a certain extent – I lost over 20 lbs from the time that I started; however, I've put back on about 10. With my schedule and the weather, I'm not able to get out as much, and I fear that I'll lose the endurance I've built up to. I'm going to try to get at least one more 13-mile run in before the race.
Am I thrilled with this? Undoubtedly. Never in my life would I ever have guessed I'd be doing what I'm doing now. As I look at my training log, I have run 275.51 miles, burned off over 24 lbs (around 455 donuts). Over 68 hours have been devoted to running, which, when you think about it, really isn't a lot over the ten-month period. I can definitely tell that it has helped me physically and emotionally; Before I started running, I would feel my pulse race to over 120 on occasion – even when sitting down. That doesn't happen now – my resting heart-rate has dropped to a more acceptable level, and I no longer get tired walking up flights of stairs. My blood pressure has also happily moved downward. Though my weight has moved back up a bit, I'm still down 10 lbs, and I can tell by the way the clothes are fitting that there's a definite difference. Mentally, I seem to be better able to focus on things, and (though some may argue), I feel I don't "explode/connipt" as fast I as used to (a definite win-win situation). In fact, if I don't run for a few days, I get antsy to get out there.
But there's something else that I have gained in the training – another circle of colleagues and friends. One of the main reasons I'm doing this is because of Team AllEars.
Who is Team AllEars?
Who are the members of Team AllEars? Below is a list of the people officially on the team (links to websites/blogs are included for those that I know):
The Reason We're a Team:
We are 66-strong...of all ages, locations, income levels, occupations, and levels of fitness. And we have been working on preparing for our task; for some, our 3rd, 4th, even 5th race...and for many, our very first one. Some are running 5k. Some are preparing for 13.1. Others are gearing up for 26.2...and then there are the Goofy ones who are running the 13.1 on Saturday and the 26.2 on Sunday (the really Dopey ones are adding a 5K on Friday on top of that). This group has shared triumphs and tribulations. Many have fought injury in their training - some, unfortunately, have had to end their training because of it. We have asked each other about training, about fundraising, about what to expect and what to avoid. We have celebrated births...and we have consoled those losing loved ones.
In a few weeks, I'll be fortunate enough to meet nearly every one of these people for the first time. I have a sense, though, that we'll already know each other, and, when we meet up, it will seem like we're more like friends that simply haven't seen each other in a long time. We're all Disney freaks - that goes without saying. There's another bond that we share, though...we're in this to raise money - money that goes to more than just trying to find a cure. Much of this money goes towards awareness and education; screening and diagnosis; access to treatment; and support services...all in addition to scientific research.
If you haven't donated yet, please consider doing so..even if it's a single dollar (imagine how much could be raised if all the online Disney freaks donated just $1). We broke the $25,000 level a couple of weeks ago, but we want to see that number keep on going up!!! If you want to donate online, go to the Avon Walk donation page and fill it out. All of us on Team AllEars has agreed to raise a minimum of $500 - to have your money count towards our goals, please add the following in the "Personalize your gift" line: (your name), Team AllEars (name of runner). Example for those who want to have your donation go towards my goal...you'd enter: John Smith, Team AllEars Chris Mushrush. You can make it anonymous - just leave out your name and put in "Team AllEars (runner's name)". If you do a donation online, please make sure the runner you're donating in the name of knows about what you've done.
If you would rather donate without doing it online (and want it to count for my goal), you can send me a check (payable to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer) to:
Chris Mushrush
P.O. Box 55
Downs, IL 61736
Originally, I was shooting for a goal of $1,000, but I have since decided that, being new to fundraising, $500 should be the goal. I'm not quite there yet as I write this, but we're getting closer.
The excitement factor is starting to build. This won't be a typical Disney World trip for us - we fly down on a Thursday, going to bed early on Friday, running EARLY in the morning on Saturday, and will be back on Sunday. I hope to be able to provide pictures and updates of all that is going on in the short time we'll be down there. In the next couple of weeks, I'll post information on how you can follow me during the race (to see if I make it!). You'll be able to receive texts as I pass certain mile markers. Let's do this thing!!!

Team AllEars – How to Donate!
(Note: if you don't want to read the background story and just want the link to donate, scroll down to the "Here's how you can help" section.)
One of the main reasons I submitted my name to become a member of the 2011 Team AllEars group (background story here) was because I saw what the group did in 2010. If you look here, you can see that the inaugural group of teammates raised over $25,000 for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. "Why this charity" you ask? Well, I didn't really know this answer myself until I heard about Team AllEars on a podcast last year. I could write down why, but I'd rather let you read it from a 24-year survivor of breast cancer: Deb Wills. Please take a minute to read her story on her Avon Walk Donation page…even those Disney fans who read this blog may not know about this part of her life.
It seems that everyone knows someone who has been diagnosed. While my side of the family has been fortunate to not have any members diagnosed, my wife's family has had two separate diagnoses in the past few years alone. Luckily, both are in the "survivor" category. This, as we all know, is not always the outcome. For many, it has taken the lives of wives, mothers, sisters, daughters, aunts, cousins, friends…people known and loved.
To date, Deb has raised over $225,000 to aid in the fight against breast cancer, but she's not resting…her desire and determination to do what she can is just as strong as ever.
This is where Team AllEars comes in. While we, as individual members, benefit from the healthier lifestyle from the exercise and the camaraderie of helping each other in training and motivation, we also do this to help raise money for Deb and the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. As mentioned earlier, the 42-member team from last year successfully raised over $25,000. Since I'm on the 2011 team, of course I want to say that we raised far more than last year's team! When I signed up to be a part of the team, it was requested that we raise $500 each.
I want that to be my halfway point in donations.
It's a lofty goal…one that I know I may fall short of. I look at the various connections I have, though, and I think that achieving $1,000 is a definite possibility.
Here's how you can help:
Note - I have had several people say that they couldn't quite understand how to do the online donation. If you are willing to donate and want to do the most simple method, feel free to just send me a check made out to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, and I'll forward it for you.
Head over to THIS INSTRUCTION PAGE, which spells out how to do an online donation (remember that these donations are tax-deductible). If you follow along the instructions, you go to the donation page and enter the donation amount, followed by the billing info. The last section takes you to a place where you can personalize the donation. If you would to donate and want the donation to count towards my tally, just do as the example on the instruction page shows – in the "How would you like your name to appear" box, put "your name Team AllEars Chris Mushrush". Note that you can put "Anonymous Team AllEars Chris Mushrush" too if you prefer not to disclose your name.
If you would rather use a check for a donation, just follow the directions on the donation page and include a note that you are supporting me. If you prefer to give the funds to me, I'll also accept checks and will send them all in a batch.
One thing I do ask – if you do donate, please let me know so I can acknowledge what you've done. I will be updating this post as donations come in with the names of those who have helped out (I'll include "anonymous" to protect your identity if you wish…just let know).
With that…let the training continue (barring any injuries) and let the fundraising begin!!!
