So this year, my Aunts Sally, Karen, Helen, Emily and Dede, My Mother, Sister and I decided that we will be joining the Susan G. Kommen 3 Day Breast Cancer walk in early October. It is 60 miles long. *dies*
I am very excited to be participating this year, as it will be the first time in my life to accomplish walking a distance greater than the span of World Showcase at Epcot (and if you have ever attempted to power walk World Showcase...it's horrible. :D)
I think this will be a good power starter for me to finally get healthy, especially concidering I am unfortunately one of *those* people. The ones that start every year to diet only to give up after three days because I just love food too damn much! But trying to walk when you're over weight can be a challenge, and seeing as how 20 miles a day for three days will be challenge enough, I need to finally cut the crap and lose some! :)
But losing weight is obviously not the motivation for doing such an epic walk as this one, but beating Breast Cancer is. I was recently made aware of just how much Breast Cancer runs in my family, and it is something I will need to watch and monitor now that I am getting older. (I'm not old, just older!) :D
So if anyone out there would like to help me raise money for breast cancer research, hang out for a bit. Once I register with the walk I will post a link here for you to head over to my page and sponsor me!
My goal is 2,300 dollars. Can you help? Even a dollar donation is gladly welcome!!
