Well, you've found it! This is my Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3 day journal page! It's where I will post updates relating to my training and my progress! I'll also post pictures as they are appropriate as well!

Why am I doing this? I'm doing this to support my dear cousin Marylee who was just diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005. She is fighting this battle and she will win! It hurts me that I'm so far away from her, so what better way for me to help than to take on a battle of my own, and conquer it! She is my inspiration, my courage and my heart for this incredible journey I will take. She makes me realize every single day with her strength and determination that life is a gift, and it needs to be fought for!

"RUN FOR LIFE-Melissa Etheridge"

It's been years since they told her about it
The darkness her body possessed
And the scars are still there in the mirror
Everyday that she gets herself dressed
Though the pain is miles and miles behind her
And the fear is now a docile beast
If you ask her why she is still running
She'll tell you it makes her complete

[Chorus:]
I run for hope
I run to feel
I run for the truth
For all that is real
I run for your mother your sister your wife
I run for you and me my friend I run for life

It's a blur since they told me about it
How the darkness had taken its toll
And they cut into my skin and they cut into my body
But they will never get a piece of my soul
And now I'm still learning the lesson
To waken when I hear the call
And if you ask me why I am still running
I'll tell you I run for us all

[Chorus]

And someday if they tell you about it
If the darkness knocks on your door
Remember her remember me
We will be running as we have before
Running for answers
Running for more

Come along on my journey with me!!!
