Hi @Monicasfootsteps
I love that you're thinking of running the fun run in December. I have continued to run through both chemotherapy and radiation and just completed the 10km at Run Melbourne. I may not have been as fast as I used to be but certainly have a new appreciation of just getting out there. I have also been seeing an exercise physiologist, which has helped me a lot with maintaining strength. I would have been keen to join you in December, however I will probably still be recovering from surgery at the time. If you need any support along the way just let me know, as I'll keep running up until my surgery :)
