A Year of Running + Gardening |
2010: In the grips of a Quarterlife crisis, I'm striving to both commit and find meaning through training for a marathon and becoming a first time gardener. 2011: Second marathon. Second (dead) garden. Higher stakes. 2012: Another marathon. No garden. Have I bitten off more than I can chew? Probably. Only time will tell. |

October is overwhelming. After seeing pink bus stops and seeing an NFL game where all the players were wearing pink, I had to say something. Pink doesn’t raise awareness. Pink reminds women that they should perform a self-examination regularly. People only know this if they’re already aware of the message. So when the NFL chooses to have players wear all pink, but fails to address why they’re raising awareness or to tie it to anything, it’s a waste and it shows the manipulative nature of their actions.
The five year survival rate for breast cancer is extremely high, it’s time to focus on other cancers.
My breasts are not more important than her blood, his lungs, or your pancreas.
