All my stuff will be in Ziploc and garbage bags in my husbands large gym bag ready for the camp. I'll be wearing pink and eating plenty of pasta. Then on Friday I'll be there by 6:30 in the morning when opening ceremonies start, along with around 2,000 other walkers, ready to walk 60 miles through SF. The next three days will be fun, entertaining, heart wrenching, and exhausting but in the end it will be so worth it. I'm hoping for no blisters and a few new friends.
Can you tell I'm excited? I'm excited to be part of something this big, that helps so many people. Last year people walking in the 3 Day raised more than $77 million. Did you know that most of the money raised goes towards breast cancer education and awareness? That's important because so many women don't know that they need to get checked or what to even look for. If you can catch it early enough it can be cured.
So, once again I'm going to ask for money. I haven't raised my $2,300 yet, but am very close. Those of you that have already donated, thank you so much!! I know many of you give to other causes and I respect that so I'm not asking you. But there are some of my friends who say, "Oh, right, I was going to donate." now is your chance. :)
Help me help others. Everyone deserves a lifetime is the slogan of the 3 Day and mine is If not me, who? If not now, when? I can walk, so I will.
Thank you for reading and for donating.

PS Let me know if you want updates on my walk. I'll be texting family and can add you to the list!
