What seemed impossible at first is now within reach! I am only, as of this morning, $154 away from $1000 to benefit cancer research. I can't thank you enough! I never though at first I could be so close from this goal. Thanks to all the supporters! I think we can reach this goal together!


This event is for an important cause. In our family, our neighborhood, our circle of friends or our co-workers, we all know people who have been touched by cancer. Uncles, Aunts, Grand parents, close friend, we don?t have to look too far. Cancer touches everyone. It touches all of our lives

This is one of the reasons why I?m taking on this huge challenge. Cancer is becoming more and more present in our lives and we need to support the efforts in finding treatments and a cure. I also hope, by participating to this challenge, to spread the message among my colleagues, friends and family that it is equally important to lead a healthy and active living.

Step Up For The Cure starts this Saturday September 26 at noon and ends noon on Sunday at Percival Molson Stadium (475, ave des Pins O, Montréal, QC). And yes! You can come and cheer me in person! Your presence will be greatly appreciated! But be warned, for those who come, you might be forced to climb some steps with me :-)
