This past september, my best friend and I participated in The Breast Cancer 3 Day in the Twin Cities. It was our first time, it took a lot out of both of us, but we plan on doing it again. It was one of the most moving experience we have ever done. Walking mile after mile in a sea of pink, it’s just moving to watch thousands of people walking to help end breast cancer. Something that will touch someones life at one point or another. For me, it touched me personally, my mom passed away from Breast Cancer December 12 2007 after battling Breast Cancer for close to 4 years. Katie and I decided to the event in memory of her, the two of us trecked out to raise the required $2200 to participate in the event, and to train to walk the 60 miles. Unfortunatly we didn’t train enough and we only walked about 30, but for the two of us that was a HUGE accomplishment, and we met some amazing ladies on this event. Now we have planned to take part in this event again this year but in a much larger group in Hopes that we can make the entire 60 miles. It will be tough, but knowing what we know now, I know that we can do it. Here is a video from The Closing Ceremonies from this past walk, taken place at The Capitol. Such an emotional experience, I think everyone should take part in this wonderful event.
