I came across this article on one of the local dailies last week on the "Toughest Race On Earth: Iditarod" to be aired on the Discovery Channel on Astro. What amazed me most is that among the participants is a breast cancer survivor DeeDee Jonrowe, 55 who has competed in 27 Iditarod races so far.
Wow to participate in rugged terrains across frozen rivers in Alaska just months after finishing her breast cancer treatment and having 22 lymph notes removed is really something not most of us can do! My hats off to DeeDee and wishing her all the best in the coming 2009 race.
