Nashville’s Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure 2009 in Brentwood TN

Just finished a 5k race this morning that’s very near and dear to my heart. I started running the Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure in Nashville several years ago when one of my best friends, Hannah, at 27 years old found out she had breast cancer. She is a survivor after having gone through a double mastectomy and lots of chemo and radiation thankfully. And since then, Breast cancer has found its way to another very dear friend at age 29, Sarah, who I am happy to say is also a survivor but a high school friend of mine wasn’t so fortunate. Breast cancer made it’s way through Jennifer’s body and we lost her just a few months ago at age 36. I guess the reason I am saying all of this is so that young women are aware of the potential threat of breast cancer in their own lives. It seems to be finding it’s way to young women in higher numbers these days, so if you’re a woman reading this at any age, please make sure you are doing monthly self examinations and don’t skip out on your annual visit to the doc.

Please support breast cancer awareness non-profit research and treatment organizations. Your contributions really do make a difference.
