Okay, back to our regulary scheduled programming...

I'm back.  It's that time again.

Time to put it out there for things I believe in ...

Causes worth fighting for ...

Fighting my lungs that don't want to pull in the air I need ...

Fighting sore muscles that don't want to push through ...

Fighting a new battle with GERD that wants to take away anything I have left after I've fought the other two ...

but it's nothing compared to those who are fighting to live ...

fighting to beat a blood cancer, lymphoma or prostate cancer ...

fighting to get their life back after cancer ...

This year, I'm asking folks to support either of these two causes

Light the Night - Minnesota, an evening walk to honor and celebrate leukemia and lymphoma patients and their families - my site is http://pages.lightthenight.org/mn/TwinCt1212/reneehedstrom


or

Dash for Dad - The Great Prostate Cancer Challenge - a 5k to raise awareness of prostate cancer.  My site for this event is https://fundraising.active.com/fundraiser/ReneeHedstrom

The challenge is the same - for every $10.00 donated to either cause, I'll run 1 mile, $50.00 gets 5 miles, $100, I'll run 10 and once I hit $1,500, I'll run that half-marathon again. 


Once again, I'll use this site to update you on my training and fundraising progress and hopefully provide you with laughter, motivation and food for thought.


Get ready - 'cause

Here.

We.

Go.
