Notes:  The way my body has bounced back after this first treatment has truly exceeded my expectations, however this week I did learn the importance of recovery even when you are not "training" "tapering" and "peaking" for races.  I felt amazing Friday and Saturday after taking it easy on Thursday.  I truly believe that exercise and a healthy diet helps reduce fatigue and support overall health while undergoing cancer treatment, but just like when I am training to compete, to feel my best, a balance between exercise and recovery needs to be found.
