LOCAL Closer Look: Team Survivor Northwest - Seattle

Posted on Sunday, September 26, 2021 by Monika Kelly

Monika Kelly speaks with Jennefer Boyer, the Executive Director of Team Survivor Northwest about the incredible fitness work they do with women who've had a cancer diagnosis. Team Survivor encourages women to participate in a variety of exercise--starting with fitness classes (currently online), and then moving on to things like dragon boating, urban and mountain hikes and even triathlons.  Research has suggested that women increase their post-cancer survival rate by up to 60 percent with exercise. One woman vowed to finish 75 of a particular fitness activity by the time she hit age 75. Did she accomplish her goal? Find out by listening to this podcast.
