One more Season!!!!

Yes you heard it right I signed up for another TNT season because Cancer isn't Cured yet! 

After having my daughter and figuring out motherhood I wanted to get back to my running and I did. As I was running again with my buddies from Team In Training I missed joining the fight against cancer.  I kept thinking have I done enough? can I do more ? and I can do more, I can do one more season.  There have been one too many deaths from cancer in the past year of people I know and just today I learned another friend has been diagnosed with cancer.  Why is this happening ? The year is 2013!! haven't we progressed enough in science to find a cure yet??? 

Everyday I look at my daughter and think will she have to deal with a loved one with cancer? Will she get cancer? since the lost of my sister Alexandria I fear this and want to do everything in my ability to not have to fear it.  Which is why I run with Team In Training to support an organization that does research to find a cure. This season I will be training for the Chicago Full marathon in October and hope to raise a lot of money and see friends win their battle with cancer.

Please consider joining me in this fight,  donate today and stop this horrible disease from taking another loved one.http://pages.teamintraining.org/sj/chicago13/vpon
