Run For The Cure

Shortly after I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, I envisioned myself running in the annual Run for the Cure. I pictured myself wearing the running bib that said, “I’m Running For…Me”. I guess that’s probably why I sign off each blog as ‘me’. So this is the method to my recent madness of trying to get back into running. I know there are several others planning to do the race on October 1st so when you see me there, don’t be alarmed when you see me balling at the finish line (in fact I can cry right now just thinking about it). It will be an accomplishment for me on so many levels. So if you are interested in sponsoring me (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) you can donate on-line at www.cibcrunforthecure.com and click “Donate to a Participant and type my name ( I will be running in the London race).

Thanks,
me

Hi Kim:

Last night as I was doing my "wun" as I like to call it (combo walking/running)I was thinking about you and all those other "crazy" runners that I envy so much. I don't think I will ever get to the point where I could actually run even 20 minutes straight let alone a marathon of any sort - my hat is off to you and I don't think you will be the only one crying when you cross that finish line.
