Cathy Troisi is doing Boston Marathon for the 50th time

Auburn native Cathy Troisi will be 72 next month, and on April 16 she will "do" the Boston Marathon for her 50th time. "I never say the word 'run,' I say 'do' marathons," she said. "The marathon scene for me, is when I feel most me, or at least the me I think I was before my daughter was diagnosed and everything that happened in the next two years." Troisi's daughter, Kim Troisi-Paton, was diagnosed with colon cancer at age 35. That's when Cathy, who then lived year-round in Seneca Falls, NY packed up her belongings and moved to Cohoes outside of Albany, NY to be with her daughter and two grandchildren. In 2005, she finished her treatments. But in December 2006, her cancer came back. Kim passed away in August 2007. (02/27/2018) Views: 1,925 ⚡AMP
