    YESSSSS PETER!!! Congratulations my friend!! I enjoyed this video very much, except for the part near the end when someone was cutting onions in here😉 That was a fantastic race, and that distance and course were no joke. Great job! You did fantastic!
    Not uncommon for blood chemistry to be out of wack in healthy people, let alone someone who's had cancer, chemo, and surgery. Products like "Blood Builder" and "Healthy Blood" will help you get your Iron AND Ferritin levels back (you should get tested for both). You'll feel so much better once those are both up into the high zones. Post cancer, I also take 15,000iu of vit D3 with K2 every day, in order to have my vit D level in the 80ng/ml range (Sports Research brand, made with coconut oil). I also take quite a bit of magnesium, and Whole Vit C. Citrus fruits, pineapple (left sitting out on the counter until the leaves are starting to turn a little brown), kiwi, strawberries, etc, are a great source for whole C.
    This month marks 8yrs since I received my call that my sudden onset of incredible nausea and pain was due to having lymph nodes in my torso that were the 3.8" in diameter, instead of being the size of peas, and that I was full of cancer. Like you, I was a runner at the time. I actually told the med-tech who called, "You have the wrong number." What you said about not trusting your body is so true. I train (run and mtb) year round so that I can run R2R at the Grand Canyon and do other big trail/adventure runs, I'm in the best shape of my life, I'm 58, and I still think "Has it come back?" every time I have any odd pain anywhere, that I can't account for.

    Hi Peter, I've followed your journey for a while, but this is my first time commenting ☺️
    I'm so happy for your results, I was diagnosed with mouth cancer in July last year, removal of the tumour on my lip and 6 weeks radiation followed, it's been 8months now and I'm still struggling with the aftermath TBH, but stories like yours keep me going 👍
    I'm glad you are back doing what you ❤️👍
    I'll get there one day too, best wishes from New Zealand 👍

    Great inspirational video! I have been following your story since it appeared in my feed. You have persevered through a very scary time and are fighting bravely to live the life you desire. I totally understand what you said about "trusting your body". I can see why you may have felt like it was betraying you since you always maintained a healthy lifestyle. But, your attitude is amazing, and how can we know why cancer strikes some people? It's a reminder to live each day to its fullest. And wow, 33rd place. Awesome and congratulations!

Here in ireland when you're low in iron people say you crave it and its a great source.. Myth or not maybe there is something to it since you did find out you were low in it! Great excuse for a pint!

One of the most important books on this is: Return from tomorrow (Ritchie) There You learn that leaving Your body one day (even a sporty body :-) is just leaving Your BODY! - YOU - as soul and spirit- will leave - and begin Your journey!!!

    I started experiencing random flushing about a month ago and went to my doctor who blew it off as nothing. I decided to research what it could be and found carcinoid syndrome because I have stomach issues I went to another doctor and explained what was happening and he sent me for bloodwork and a 24hr urine test. I been having panic attacks for the last week waiting for my results (which aren't back yet) I have a 2 year old and a 10 week old baby so I'm so scared. I don't know yet if I have it or not but for someone who feels like they do, you have given me hope❤️
