Hello everyone!

I know I haven't been on a whole lot lately... but let me just say... it has been 2 months since my surgery and I am down 40 pounds!  I am so excited by this.... I could just scream!

So as my title for this post says, I am going to walk 60 miles in 3 days!  I have decided with this great tool that I have been given, it is time to give something back!  I am going to be doing the Twin Cities Komen 3 Day for a Cure walk to raise money and awareness for breast cancer!  I thought that  having to train for this momentous walk would be a great way to help keep me motivated to keep moving and walking!  My mother is a breast cancer survivor and I am doing this to help her and the millions of other women who have either fought breast cancer (whether they have won or lost the fight) and the millions who are fighting or could be fighting it in the future.

So I am writing to do the one thing that everyone HATES doing, asking for donations....

So please, if you are able to, donate to help me reach my goal!  Ask your companies that you work for if they do matching gifts to Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure (over 200 companies do and that means that anything you donate, they will match!   Imagine donating $100 and having your company do the same, just to help this cause!)  I have set a very high goal for myself of $5,000.00!  

Even if you don't know me personally, or if you know someone else who is walking, donate what you can to help this cause!  Donate in honor of anyone you know who has fought the fight, or anyone you know who still could have to fight this fight!

TOGETHER WE CAN END BREAST CANCER!

I have attached a widget so that if you want to donate to me directly, you can just click on it and it will bring you to my donation page.  If you know someone else who is walking, you can link to their page by going to www.the3day.org and putting in their first and last names.

Thank you for your time and any donations in advance!
