SCRANTON RUNNING COMPANY - TEAM SURVIVOR

Scranton Running Company's Team Survivor was formed in July 2010. It consists of ten breast cancer survivors with a mission: take their running and walking to a new level at the Race for the Cure on September 11, 2010. They have just 9 weeks to prepare. We've sponsored and will support them along the way in their fitness endeavors. They've kindly agreed to share their inspiratoinal stories and experiences here:

Thank you, SRCo

I am so thankful to have the opportunity to be a part of SRCo's Team Survivor. From strangers to teammates (and friends) in such a short time has been amazing. Thanks to RJ and Megan, the ladies on this team have become a force to be reckoned with. We ran almost the entire Race for the Cure 5k race route tonight and still had the breath to keep on talking and laughing after we were finished. (Some even had the breath to talk the entire way through! -- and they know who they are.) Just kidding! We have become quick friends through these training sessions. What started out as a "Tuesday night" adventure has evolved to Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday. I never would have thought I could do what I have been accomplishing these last three weeks -- thank you so much, RJ and Megan! Your enthusiasm keeps us going -- we hope to make you proud! And thank you, Scranton Running Company for bringing us all together.

Donna Rupp (8-year breast cancer survivor)

To RJ, Megan, Matt R, and Matt B: Not only have I never run before, I have never used a computer. Since joining this team, I like to feel I have mastered them both. This experience for me has been life changing on so many levels. I can now run three miles! I never thought it was possible. Your talented staff has enabled me to accomplish this. The efforts you all have made to get the word out about how exercise and fitness can help to prevent a reoccurrence of this disease is remarkable. That is what makes breakthroughs for this cure happen. Through this experience, I have met so many inspiring women who I now can call my friends. Best of luck with your new business. God bless you all.

Well said, Donna. I finally figured out how to blog! (Now to figure out how to use all of the remotes in my house.) Looking forward to Saturday and running with our wonderful gals and team leaders. Marie
