Comments on: a challenge to move in october. http://www.beckyhiggins.com/blog/2012/09/a-challenge-to-move-in-october/ All for the love of sharing.

I needed this motivation. I am a (almost 17 month) breast cancer survivor. And like Jonathon I’m early 40s with young children still at home. The year of treatment was hard, but I’m thankful to still be here with my family. Today I hit the 46 mile mark! Whoot!!! I thought of Jonathon and his whole family while logging these miles. I think cancer survivors feel that we owe it to those who did not make it to go forward in our lives and find some good or do some good. Doing this challenge made me feel like I was doing just that. Thank you for the kick start, I plan to keep the fire burning and make some good in this world. All my best, Tina in Durham

I’ll be 43 in December and I just started bicycling as part of a “Get Back on Your Bike” program through work. I just reached 45 miles total today for the past three weeks. I’ll gladly figure out how many of those have been in October and continue tracking my miles for the challenge.

What a great way to honor your brother’s memory!!! Thanks for letting us participate too!!!

I blogged about it a bit here too: http://athomewiththerichardsfamily.blogspot.com/2012/10/each-day-one-mile.html

Also, your words were also motivating. 6.7 miles between yesterday and today. It is getting me ready for an 8K in November. I will walk it in your brothers honor and all who have left us because of cancer, my Dad included.

Yesterday I already logged in 6 miles…took my 3 year old for a bike ride for exercise…but then for FHE we took everyone to the corn maze, and that was quite the walk! My legs are jelly today. Thanks for the push…your family continues to be in my prayers. Miles for Jonathan!

up as I think it is a very thoughtful tribute to your brother.

I’m gonna do it for Jonathan and for my Uncle Lynn who died of brain cancer two months ago.

That is way to young to pass! I am running in the San Francisco Nike Women’s marathon in two weeks (I’ll be doing the half…I’m not that crazy!) and will keep him in my thoughts. Situations like this remind me that my problems are so tiny and insignificant and that the greatest gifts I have are my life, my health, my friends and my family. We are all so blessed. Thanks for the reminder!

I was working away & having the internal debate about whether I had time to exercise today. Thank you for pushing me out the door!
