Training

Well, training is going slow. I took a little break because Garrett has been in and out of the hospital several times in the last month. Hopefully, we will not be back there EVER, so now I can resume my training .

It is overwhelming to me that 1 out of 8 women will be touched by breast cancer in their lifetime. 1 in 8!!!!!!!!! It is pandemic. That will leave too many motherless children...too many spouses without a wife...too many parents without a child...too many siblings without a sister....
It takes my breath away to think about children having to lose their mother.

I CHOOSE TO TAKE A STAND!
I choose to get out and exercise to lose weight and decrease my risk of all cancer.
I choose to walk 60 miles, so that the brains of the research community can have some money to stop women from loosing their boobs and more importantly, their lives.
I choose to let my daughter see that one person can make a difference.
I choose to fight for her breasts.
I choose to show all peaple watching us walk, that I care about their lives.
I choose to walk, and walk, and walk...

The ultimate assult to a women's vanity, is not to lose her hair, but to lose her breasts.
I would let someone shave my head if they would give enough money to support my walk. It is just hair...it will grow back. A breast will not.

If I have to walk alone, I will. I had visions of showing up in Dallas with an army of women with me walking the streets wearing all the same shirt. What a huge message this would be. Everyone could see that we women are serious about keeping our boobs!

If you cannot join the walk, then maybe you know someone that would be willing to take a stand with me. Please pass this along, and please click on the link below to visit my personal site on The 3 Day.org. When you visit the site, please leave something to show that you are done with breast cancer.

One of the mottos of the training shirts of The 3 Day is " I WALK FOR_____" and you fill in the blank. Well, I walk for ALL.

ROCK the WALK!
