We know the benefits of exercise and preventing recurrence and people who have experienced cancer and hopefully preventing cancer in those who have never had cancer be. Things go pretty fast once the process gets started whether its surgery first or treatment first with chemotherapy. Yeah. Were able to see on a daily basis the benefits of exercise. Exercise can actually prevent recurrence or prevent cancer from coming back and most importtly fo or those people out there who have never experienced a cancer diagnosis, exercise can hopefully prevent them from ever having to experience it. Its just they feel like they cant do it anymore. So, to be able to look them in the eye and say i know what you feel, i know whats going through your head, but you can look at me and see you can get through this and you will get through this. Ok. That is a good workout and for a great cause. Doctor brown kept us a consistent exercise routine through her cancer treatment.

Of course, the warmest one set back in 1950, but its just been a slew of these hot, dry days around here which for the most part has been so comfortable and so nice, but it would really be great if we could get a couple of storms in here. Unfortunately right now, its just not looking that promising. Today, a pair of sevens in denver, fort collins, greeley, up through sterling as well as extremely comfortable in the 60s in eagle, low 70s forrifle, out toward the west towards Grand Junction and into rango too. Nicelooking evening for a lot of folks. Maybe you are still grilling outside for dinner. We are looking at nicer weather tomorrow too. This evening, quiet. 51 degrees. Mostly clear skies at the airport. You can see a good chunk of themidsection of the country has been dry. Quick storm system pushing throughout parts of minnesota as well as wisconsin and another one rolling little rain. Some snowfall along the higher peaks up there. For us, nothing. We just have nothing to talk about as far as the precipitation goes. Tonight, will be a little bit cooler. A lot of folks falling into the 40s overnight. 30s in craig and telluride and alamosa. Tonight in town, a little patchy fog will start to develop after midnight coming in from the northeast. We could potentially be waking up to that around 7 00 tomorrow morning. Ill show you in the future 10 00 hour it is oozing in from nebraska along i76. It sneaks it towards die, downtown denver, potentially could surge a little further to our southern suburbs. I think you are in the clear if you live south towards castlerock, highlands ranch. By the afternoon well look for partly cloudy skies. 2 00, 3 00 p. M. Broncos are Getting Started out there and i think we are going to have a fantasticlooking forecast. Whether you tailgating, it should be nice. Partly cloudy skies through the evening. Tomorrow night about 10 00 p. M. Mostly cloudy skies. We had the front that pushed through today that knocked down our temperatures ever so lightly slightly. A stronger storm system to our west making its way to our backyard. Unfortunately the rain and snowfall you see, that stays further up to the north. The storm track is staying to the north. The winds associated with that front will be making their way here into colorado. Ill show you with this. Afternoon 4 00, 5 00, they are peaking between 1015 Miles Per Hour around metro area. A little stronger towardsest yes, sir park and allen estes park and tomorrow morning 60mileperhour gusts coming from the west into the mountains and foothills and i would not be surprised if we see a high wind warning or watch go into place for tomorrow. It will be a gusty one. Once we get rid plenty of sunshine. 70s for most of eastern colorado. Still extremely comfortable for this time of the year. Again, broncos taking on the chargers as they head out there for kickoff low 70s. It should be good right there about halftime mid70s. A really nicelooking forecast if you like the sunshine. As we head towards the first of november, we still are in the 70s. Well haveslight, little cool off coming our way by wednesday and into thursday and first weekend of november. We just cant shake this weather pattern. Its been bizarre. I know. It really has. It does not feel like its almost the first of november. At all. Oh, man, ok. Soon enough, it will be here.

Bob dylan is finally answering the questions where is he after winning nobel prize for literature. He didnt respond to the honor a couple of weeks and the Academy Members had trouble getting ahold of him. He even confirmed he would accept the world. He told the british newspaper from colorado sports leader, here is rod mackie. Dont get too excited too soon. That was the feeling after the nuggets opened their season with a win at new orleans. Remember, denver won game one on the road last year as well th 49 setbacks for denver last season. The last team that they lost to portland which happened to be the same team they opened up at home against tonight. Denver was down eight at the half, but used a Third Quarter run to take it over. Emmanuel misses. Denver with the first lead of the game things got crazy in the fourth. Power went out at pepsi for 28 minutes and then once it came points of regulation to force overtime. Thats where we are right now. The game is tied once again at 109109. The best part of this game was at halftime. Thats when the nuggets honored one of their best to ever hoop it up here in denverment denver. Dikembe mutombos number 55 raised to the rafters. No nugget will wear those digits again. People will come from generation to generation will see that name and it mean a lot. It means a lot to my family. Avscoyotes. Arizona scored first, but not most. Colorado did. Rene bourque got his first goal with colorado ever and matt duchene scored not once, but twice. Avs win as they bounce back from last nights 10 loss. Dern 32. Du beat western michigan today. The cowboys came flew a huge way as they through in a huge way as they shocked unbeaten boise state. Late safety by appleby the difference. Biggest Mountain West win ever for wyoming. First time they have beaten the broncos. Safe to say there is a big party in laramie tonight 3048 the final. We are making it puts us back on it. Its a great win. Im going to enjoy it. You look at the crowd behind you. Go [ cheers and applause ] that is awesome. Also, unc won another wild one 5649. That was in overtime and it was over portland state. The broncos made it official today. Made official what we knew yesterday. Running back Juwan Thompson has been promoted to the practice avenge the loss in san diego. A big burst. Steps under tackle, 15, right by him, touchdown denver for years, it seems san diego represented a second bye week for the broncos. Five straight wins against the chargers until last time. Now its time for the broncos to play the bolts back just 18 days after that rare setback. Im happy to be playing them again this early. You know, we are looking forward to it and we still have a bad taste in our mouth going into this past game. Were ready for it. Weve got a good feel for them. Familiar opponent. So, going off of what theyve done all year, what they did to us and then what theyve done the last two weeks, so i think we have plenty to watch on them. Id rather be a divisional game than a team we didnt know. They do a good job scheduling these games. The San Diego Chargers is a team were familiar with. Whatever you play them on sunday, it will be a different team, but we are familiar with type of scheme they run. A lot has changed since that thursday night game to forget. For one, broncos have their head coach back, but the chargers are suddenly on a roll after beating the broncos and the other team to down denver, atlanta. They played and won close games all year long. Theyve got some interesting stats. I think theyve led held the lead more than anybody in this league right now. They just lost some games late, but played really well and obviously got after to atlanta and beat a really Good Football Team on the road. The San Diego Chargers win it in overtime they are always a good team. They werent bad. Their offense is always in the top. They always have an elite offense. They werent finishing those games, so now they learn how to win, we have to get them back to that so they get back to losing. Finally, the cubs snapped one streak. They made it to the world series for the First Time Since chicago won it all. If they are to repeat that feat, they need to come back from three games down to one. Yes, they are down to the indians. Corey kluber got them again doing damage on the mound and on the plate. A run in the second thanks to chicagos second error in that inning. Cleveland wins. The final score was 72. Same we had fun tonight. We had so much fun
