Come Run With Me
Awareness to end Breast Cancer is a cause that I support (among others). When one has a close friend or relative that is touched by such a disease, it is hard to not want to throw all of your support behind a cause, such as this.
So, with a little prompting from Alicia, who writes Mental Health Notes for b5media, I have decided to participate in this years CIBC Run for the Cure. A walk/run which raises funds to end breast cancer.
Funny how little whims turn into such ideas. It started by stating that I wanted to wear a pink wig. And then the fantasy of feather boas appeared….and so on. And by talking it over with a coworker yesterday, a decision to enter had been made.
The distance isn’t a far one, only 5km. But the people who live with breast cancer, have a long road - and if there is something that I can do, to lessen the burden, then I am going to do it.
I am going to sign up this week, and start increasing my exercise.
