Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure

A few weekends back I had a great time at the Plano, TX Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. I also got to spend time with our current Miss International 2010, Miss Texas International 2011, Miss Teen Texas International 2011 & Mrs. Texas International 2011, as well as a handful for current contestants for Miss Texas International 2012 & Mrs. Texas International. I have to say that everyone was fabulous and it made me realize that this is the perfect pageant system for me! We all participated in the 1 mile fun run...you know so we didn't break a sweat :) It was great to get out into the community and I look forward to making appearances with my fellow queens.

Savannah Independence Celebration

I had a fabulous time as the Emcee for the Savannah Independence Celebration. There were tons of fun events to partake in including the parade, car show, hula hoop contest, hot dog eating contest, and the fireworks!!! I met a bunch of my great neighbors and all the little girls that are happy to know a "princess"! A big thank you to Suzanne for coming with me and taking all of the photos, you are the greatest!!
Below are some of my favorite pictures:

 Hope to see you out and about!!

Bonus Weekend Workout

So today I had a bonus workout at Full Throttle and it was awesome! It was called Lucky 7's and boy did I feel lucky after the workout.

Here is the breakdown:

• 7 squats
• 7 rows
• 7 box jumps
• 7 push-ups
• 7 v crunches
• 7 burpees
• R2R (run to road)

We had 30 minutes and the goal was to get through it 7 times. I am happy to say I made it through it 7 times! It was a kick butt workout and a great way to start the weekend!!

About Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is a type of cancer where cells in the breast tissue divide and grow without normal control. It is a widespread and random disease, striking women and men of all ages and races. It is the most prevalent cancer in the world today, with about 1.3 million people diagnosed annually. The exact cause of the disease is unknown, and at this time, there is no cure.
But there is hope. Thanks to heightened awareness, early detection through screening, improved treatment methods and increased access to breast health services, people have a greater chance of survival than ever before.
The Susan G. Komen for the Cure national website, komen.org, offers comprehensive information about breast cancer risk factors, early detection and screening, diagnosis and treatment. Developed in conjunction with the Harvard School of Public Health, the site offers a one-stop resource for all the latest information on the disease.
