Outdoor against Cancer makes me strong!
Diagnosis of breast cancer, August 2017. At first, I was only interested in being able to dare to be around people. Sport with a wig is stupid - without too. I don't want everyone to see that I have cancer right away. I dared to go to the OAC.
The training is exhausting at the beginning, but I almost always manage to go and participate during chemo. Wow, they are all so fit and in such a good mood! That gives me courage and spurs me on.
It's a great varied workout, never boring and always fun. I'm just starting my fourth year of OaC and I'm fitter than before the diagnosis! OAC makes you strong!
