Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure!

In 2009, I painfully and courageously (as some tell me) completed the entire 60 mile walk of which probably 45 miles were with large blisters on the balls of both feet. It was my own fault though. I’m just stubborn and wanted to wear my cute polka-dot socks. That same stubbornness wouldn’t allow me to quit and I convinced myself I was the Energizer Bunny and I just kept going and going and going…

Well, it's year three and I'm ready to up the ante. If I can walk 60 miles with blisters most of the way, I know that I can walk 6 days and 120 miles for a cure! This year I have stepped up to challenge myself to walk 60 miles in Washington, DC, October 8-10 and another 60 miles in Dallas, TX, November 5-7.

I’m not only challenging myself but I’m challenging you as well to step up and help donate to each of my walks. Each dollar gets us 1 step closer to a cure and 120 miles is a lot of steps closer.

Thank you for continuing to support me year after year and sharing your stories. The stories touch my heart and remind me that what I’m doing isn’t just about me it’s about everyone out there that has been touched by the horrible disease, CANCER!

In It, To End It!
