Gabby Grunewald is a fine athlete. Many have followed Gabby over the past few years as she has battled cancer. We are caught by her love of life, love of those around her, and her positive attitude. I have watched her race this spring and did not get to give her my personal good wishes. So, here it is. Gabby, best wishes. Keep running and racing. But most of all, keep up the good fight. We think of you often and we are in awe of your fighting spirit.
