Profile Information
- How did you discover Vega?
- First read about it through the Kind Life then saw more ads in Vegetarian Times. Then I looked for the booth at the ING Miami Marathon and spoke with Robert Cheeke.
- Tell us a little more about yourself
- I have been a semi-vegetarian/pescetarian since I was 14 years old (24 years). Going vegan now and loving it. I have been running since 2006 and have completed 9 marathons. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 37 years old on 11/26/08 at 12:33pm - finished my 8th marathon 24 hours after hearing the words..."you have cancer"! Tough and emotional race but I finished. After a year of surgeries, chemo and radiation I am ready to run more marathons and move on with my life. On January 31, 2010 I ran the ING Miami Marathon, my first marathon after breast cancer treatment.
