I'm going to need a new pair of shoes (Otherwise known as I've signed up for another Breast Cancer 3-Day)

It's time for another 3-Day! This time, my friend Liz and I will be walking our 60 miles over 3 days in October in Atlanta. Proceeds from the 3-Day benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation and breast cancer awareness, treatment and research.

I will raise at least $2200, train by walking or running over 300 miles, purchase at least 4 pairs of running shoes and ingest who knows how many Power Bars in order to prepare for the event over the next six months. During the event, I'll sleep in a tent, use many a port-a-pottie and learn to love Gatorade and Spenco Second Skin (for the blisters.)

The past 3-Days I've walked in Washington, DC and Dallas, TX were some of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I'm walking once again in honor of Brenda and Peg and in memory of Jane, Spring and many others who have fought against this disease that strikes 1 in 9 women. If you'd like to join our team Atlanta's Asphalt Angels, give me company while I walk or want more information about crewing or volunteering, please contact me directly. To support me through a donation, visit my 3-Day webpage. I'll be keeping you updated on my training and fundraising progress here on my blog, so visit often.

In the meanwhile, wish us blister free walks and clean restrooms!
