When I started running after chemo (I did run a little during chemo but less and less as the chemo wore on) I could barely get in a minute before stopping and less if a minor hill was involved. Now I'm good for over an hour but it was the hardest in the beginning. But you took that first step...Sue in Italia/In the Land Of Cancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11146373251097877539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395301831609983730.post-59853008565735451142009-11-03T02:36:41.167-08:002009-11-03T02:36:41.167-08:00what you have been through in the last year is ama...what you have been through in the last year is amazing. you are an inspiration for sure. <br /><br />the dog attack sounds very scary to me. here the dog would have been put to sleep after an attack like that. <br /><br />have a great week!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13347204411744571682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395301831609983730.post-37268476621949800742009-11-02T06:32:49.356-08:002009-11-02T06:32:49.356-08:00Congratulations on your first run!!

In the past I also followed a similar running plan that worked you up to running 10 minutes, walking 1 minute. By John Stanton, who has a chain of Running Room stores across Canada. Excellent program.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364706890012512947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395301831609983730.post-83449471167576406732009-11-02T05:12:21.407-08:002009-11-02T05:12:21.407-08:00Good for you getting that run in!!

There is no question that our bodies are weaker than they were before the breast cancer and I believe that while we can get back into condition, we will never really be at the place we were before. I know that I am not as fit as I once was...but part of that is age as well. The main thing is getting back into a routine of doing something good for our bodies which also makes us feel good about ourselves.<br /><br />What a nasty attack that was you suffered!! Good thinking on your part to how you saved yourself from further injury in that. I know what your mum is saying but I'll take it from a different angle Sara. It was synchronicity.<br /><br />You moved and the dog bit you near the breast. The cancer (not sure the size of the tumour) will have been growing for some time before it was detected...I'd say that dog attacking you was to catch your attention to your breast.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271529958269038071noreply@blogger.com
