Day 1

So, begins the journey. Day One of "The Adventure". I was diagnosed with breast cancer on December 26, 2008. Oh, it was a bit of a shock but I've decided to roll with the punches, go with the flow, and all the other great cliches that I can't come up with right now. I run marathons and we know that while the physical training is very important in order to successfully finish a marathon, there is that mental component of preparing for and running in a marathon that is at least as important. And I'm feeling the same way about this challenge right now. I'm going to do all the right things to get rid of this alien creature in my body but my positive attitude is at least as important. No negative thoughts. None. So, this is a new marathon-like adventure for me. I'm gonna finish and I'm going to do it in the best time I've ever done. It will be my Personal Best. Not sure that metaphor works but I'll go with it. This will be my journal of The Adventure.
