hello Vickie.
i remember responding to you when you were first diagnosed and i was ‘A year on’ from my diagnosis in March 2009.
I just wanted to say well done to you. It really does change your life doesn’t it - and i will dare to add that not all of the changes cancer has brought to my life have been bad. I’m stronger than i ever was.
Well, i’m 2 1/2 years down the road and i have run 2 half marathons and last weekend i cycled 100km (62 miles in old money!) with Davina! i’ve joined a local running club too and i’m loving it. this was all inspired by running my first 5k race for life about this time last year. It’s funny, when i responded to you on your diagnosis i did so because you reminded me of me… so watch out you’ll be running a marathon in a years time! and when you do let me know and i’ll sponsor you…
proud of you.
enjoy every moment… xxxxx

I remember you respinding to my early posts. I felt so terrified and despondent. Really pleased to hear you are doing so well. I wish i had never had bc but i can’t change that so all i can change is what i choose to do now. Talk has already been heard in my running group of the wilmslow half marathon next spring. Eeeekkk! But am definitely keeping up the running, it makes me feel good (except today perhaps when i feel achy!). Well done on your runs and that mammoth bike ride! Sounds good to me :slight_smile:

I love this thread - it just makes me smile! Well done you!!

Well done Vickie - hats off to anyone who can run more than 6 miles without having recently finished cancer treatment! Great to hear you’re feeling so well. Those darks days certainly don’t last forever.

I’m two months post-radiation and feeling completely myself again and boy is it fantastic to have my energy back, though I don’t think it’s going to carry me 6 miles at a running-pace!!

Wow … well done Vicky!!!
I hope everyone newly diagnosed gets to read your post to see that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Good luck with the half marathon - know you’ll do it xxx

Thanks everyone, am still smiling! Jane, love the photo, so glad to hear you are feeling like yourself again, fantastic! Give your babies a cuddle from me, you have done so well. Xxx
