Time...

Hello to my family & friends,

Look at the time… Wowzer, it’s almost here. I can see it just over the horizon. You all have made this happen. Due to you, my team and I are on our way on Friday at 6 AM at Freestone Park to start our 60 mile journey.

You have supported us in so many ways; from stuffing goodies bags, to setting up a garage sale, to becoming professional triathlon registration and bike pointers and medical tent people. You’ve come to the events, and have taken the time to support us in the fight against cancer. You have touched my heart with all that you have done. And you are making a difference in so many women’s lives. One day I hope that I can tell you that we did it, that we found a cure. But until then, we will continue to fight for that cure.

Feel good for what you have done. We have taken another stab at cancer through the raising of money for research. We have looked cancer in the eye and said NO MORE.

Friday is the day that we begin our 60 mile walk. Please keep my team (Laura and our newest member Erica) in your prayers. Due to the economy being what it was, we all had to do a lot of events in order to raise our money so our training this time wasn’t the greatest. Praise God the money did get raised now we have the matter of finishing those 60 miles. Pray for no blisters, no sunburn, no issues but just a great time to be had by all. I have a specific prayer request for myself that I don’t get any Charley Horses. And that we can give God the glory for this success.

**If you want to text us and cheer us along the way go ahead. Message me for my number. Please remember that we won’t be able to respond unless we’re stopped somewhere but those encouraging words will help keep us going. **

I want to pass on some info to you all as to the fun things that you can do during the walk…
