Avon Walk for Breast Cancer

| | Comments (0) |

I'll be doing the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in September, and I haven't started training yet. Eeks! On Sept. 13, you walk 26 miles (the equivalent of a marathon) and 13 miles the following day. I figured I ran the marathon last year, so a long walk should be a piece of cake, right? (Famous last words).
Click hereto check out my Web page for the event.
There's information on the Web site in case you're interested in participating, too. In order to walk the event, there's a minimum fundraising requirement of $1,800. I know it seems impossible, but it's really not. And, it goes to a great cause. Some of the money goes toward helping underprivileged women receive treatments and mammograms, as well as research and development, etc.
