Hi Monicafootsteps,
You are so amazing running marathons! Don't let this experience stop you doing exercise, maintaining healthy weight and eating healthy. I am sure you won't. I was diagnosed with BC recently. I am 40, not running marathons like you, but go to gym 3 times a week, eat healthy and maintain a healthy weight. No family history as well. I had the WHY ME phase, I was doing all the right things what the books say.
I had lumpectomy already, but I need mastectomy in the near future. I am doing well.
Wishing you the best, you will be OKAY! Take one day at a time!
Lots of loves and hugs for you
