LIVESTRONG

I am participating in my first 5K on October 25th! It will be an exciting day. Not only for me with accomplishing a short term goal I set for myself, but for those who are trying to fight against cancer.
The word LIVESTRONG has a powerful meaning to me. Not only in fighting against cancer but applying it to any battle that we come across in our lives. To me it is setting goals and attaining those goals that you have set for yourself to better yourself! I have personal experience in living strong with setting a goal to lose weight and become more active instead of sedentary. This will be my first 5K I have ever ran. 3 years ago I would not have been able to do this. I would appreciate your support as I go and LIVESTRONG for myself and all of the other battles that people around the world are fighting! This to me is not only about raising money but about proclaiming to the world the ability we all have to LIVESTRONG in whatever we desire! It is about the ability to change, to not be a victim of circumstance, but to rise above and be strong.
The Lance Armstrong Foundation unites people to fight cancer, believing that unity is strength, knowledge is power, and attitude is everything.Through the dollars and awareness that we raise, we can inspire and empower individuals, and we can make life better for the more than 10 million Americans affected by cancer.
If anyone is able to donate and would like to here is a great place to do it at!
