I am finally going to do it!  I am going to do the Susan G. Komen 5K walk/run with my local Curves group here in Boise.  It has been a few Woman walking for Breast Cancer Awarenessyears since I have been in any kind of race or walk.  I thought it would be great to join my friends and support a great cause for cancer research.

We all know the importance of giving back to our communities.  I have been fortunate that no one in my family has ever had breast cancer.  Each time I get my yearly physical it is always a sigh of relief!  Unfortunately, I have had a few friends that have experienced breast cancer.  So, I am doing it for them.  I also think it is important to help in this worthy cause.  We have lost way too many friends and family with this disease.   If any of you would like to donate money in my name here is the link to do so:

Actually, our new Curves Club owners just recently lost their sister and daughter to breast cancer.   So, it is very fresh in all of our minds and hearts.

Why did I choose to workout at Curves?

  • It is quick workout, 30 minutes three times a week helps us so much.
  • The environment is very supportive.
  • It is also conducive to those of us over 40 years plus.
  • It is in my neighborhood and I have made some wonderful friends there, too!Walk for the Cure

I also wanted to thank our new owners, Jan Cluff and her mother, Helen.  They have been wonderful to all of us.  They took over and painted right away to update our Curves for Women, Glenwood and State Streets in Boise, ID.   It is so much better in so many ways.   It is great to have our owners locally, too.  They are working hard to provide a community of real care and concern.  They are real encouragers and really care about their member's progress.   If any of you want to get in shape, Curves, is a safe and encouraging environment.  Check one out in your area.  To learn more about Curves for Women, click here: http://www.curvesinformation.com  You will be glad you did!
