Race For The Cure

On May 21, I will be running my FIRST 5K - The Komen Race For The Cure in Detroit! This is HUGE - a very important milestone for me personally.

I have been very blessed in my life - part that blessing includes my AMAZING Mother-in-Law, Diane. She has taught me countless things, but the most invaluable one is to face difficult situations with a POSITIVE attitude, a sense of humor and the faith that "everything will work itself out".




Diane and Gary - my amazing in-laws
Diane is a breast cancer survivor and Gary is a two-time cancer survivor. 

Diane's strength and determination through her breast cancer treatment inspired me to do something I never thought I could do. I have been telling myself for about 20 years that I could never be a runner. I WAS WRONG! :)

Not only am I running in honor of Diane, but also the many women in my life who have been affected by breast cancer - as well as the countless other breast cancer fighters out there.

PLEASE consider donating - even the smallest amounts help! In the "make a contribution" box on the donation page, you can select "other" and type in your own dollar amount. I have a personal goal to raise $250 - please help me reach that goal!

Cheers!
