The CIBC Run for the Cure is an annual fund-raising event in support of breast cancer research. I had run it a couple times in the past to support friends with breast cancer.
I decided to do it again this year, even before it took on much more personal reasons. Before we went on our last vacation, my wife had her regular, bi-annual mammogram. The results came back with some suspicious calcification and she took an ultrasound when we returned. She was immediately scheduled for a biopsy and at this point we're still waiting for the results. We're hopeful it's benign but it's just a reminder of how close breast, and all cancers, can hit to home.
The run is 5K but it's not a timed event. Based on my watch, I did the 5K in 25:31.
I even made it onto a couple of the evening newscasts.
