    Last Sunday Bev ran in the CIBC run for the cure.  Before her diagnosis with stage 3a IDC, double mastectomy with reconstruction, chemo and rads, Bev was an avid runner.  Her energy levels were so low during treatment and are slowly returning.  Bev managed to run the 5k (approx 3 miles) in a few seconds over 30 minutes, and that includes walking the first two blocks through congested crowds and zig zagging through thousands of people once there was enough room on the road to actually run.  Congratulations Bev and its great to see the old Bev returning.

    Timothy - you are a great cheerleader and resource for us all. 

    Bev - ROCK on, girlfriend, and welcome back to running - feels good to be back in the driver seat (or running shoes as it may be)

    Thank you all for your congrats.  It really was a big deal for me.  Running is an important part of my life and means that I am healthy and strong; physically, mentally and emotionally.   I walked a ton during treatment/recovery.  It was extremely important to me that I run it as that is what I used to do.  It is like that first day of the rest of my life. 

     Plan on making this an annual event and running the 1/2 marathon next June.

     Cheers to healthy and strong bodies!!

    Bev
