Fun runs, walks during chemo
Hi ladies since my diagnosis I have been setting myself goals I would like to achieve. As I have been able to continue exercise pretty well throughout treatment thus far, I am hoping to do some 5km...

Hey ccasper.............. go for it!!!
I kept running my 5km every Saturday at parkrun all thru my Chemo treatment & since it finished I have also participated in Run Melbourne & am registered to run in City2Sea in November. Keeping active that way is part of what got me thru. I cannot express enough my gratitude for the complete support, motivation & friendship I received from my parkrun group, its free you register online & just attend your local group. Mine is Highlands & they are a wonderful group of people PLUS as a bonus we all go into the cafe afterwards & have a social breakfast...
I remember at Chemo education the nurse telling me you will be this & that & dont try to fight it because you wont win. But win I did!!! I will not give into to it, it will not rule my life.......... I walked everynight for 1/2 an hour after dinner with my husband as well during chemo... I had 6 rounds of AC Chemo & am now on Armidex.
Keep running Cate
