Off and running

img_0543.JPGI ran a 5K on my treadmill yesterday. Ran another one this morning. Now I know I can tackle this physical feat come October 4 when I participate in my fourth Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event. What I don’t know is if I can raise as much money this time. Last year, I gathered nearly $4,000 from family and friends.

Two months before the big run and I’m off to a good start: $275 has come rolling in already.

To honor the kind and generous folks who contribute to my breast cancer cause, I will do what I did last year: I will write each and every donor’s name on my body. To reserve your very own spot, click here and donate and if you can. Make it big. Make it small. Every dollar counts.

I thank you.

    The first two links are to videos that you should watch — immediately. Kids beating cancer and Dr. Ben Carson’s suppressed story of how he beat cancer. Dr. Carson is the most famous and well respected pediatric nuerosurgeon in the world but his Wikipedia page doesn’t mention his cancer and his personal webpage doesn’t mention what he himself says saved his life.

    Please spread the word.
