 Inspiring Colorado Mom Crosses The Finish Line

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (September 11, 2018) -  Nine months after Gil Schaenzle lost her only child, 21 year old daughter Anna Rose to neuroendocrine (NET) cancer, the same complicated disease that recently ended the life of Aretha Franklin (Queen of Soul), Gil carried on with her and her daughter's mission and ran in 50 national parks across the United States. The demanding pursuit in honor of Anna was designed to raise awareness to an often times misdiagnosed form of cancer.  Clutching Anna's teddy bear throughout every run, Gil crossed the finish line last month for the final time at Denver's Rocky Mountain National Park - the same national park where she and husband Fred used to take Anna as a small child.  Note:  Nine months became a significant measure in Gil's life; she carried Anna for nine months, Anna's illness was nine months from diagnosis to her passing, and Gil carried out the National Park Run in nine months time.
