Survivor

I did my HIIT this morning and felt fabulous! I am running better and better and getting faster every week.

I know this may sounds silly, but I wore a shirt I got from Livestrong.org this morning that says "Survivor" on the front. It makes me appreciate so much that I have my health and have a choice to get up and exercise and be healthy. It made me want to be a better person and make better choices. When I ran, I ran my hardest, because I can. Because I am lucky and because I AM A SURVIVOR.

This month marks 7 years in remission! Dec. 31st to be exact. It seems not long ago that I couldn't carry a load of laundry up the stairs or walk from my car to the store without having to sit down. It was 7 short years ago that I was bald and sick and filled with drugs that killed me to bring me back to life. Now I am healthy and happy and am loving running again.
