My Commitment

I have committed to myself and a friend of mine that I am going to do the 3 Day 60 mile walk for Breast Cancer Awarness and Research. This horrible disease takes the life of so many women each year that this is how I am going to help. I am going to raise money and walk to help find a cure. Pink ribbons and all.
So with that said, I have started to train now to be ready for 20 miles a day for 3 days.

I came across a blog yesterday of a women, 28 years old that blogged about her fight with breast cancer, losing her breasts, and dealing with the fact that she will never have children because of it. I realized at that moment that I am doing this for her. I can't imagine what she went through and I will not even try but to compare my problems to it. But that is why I am walking to help find a cure and to do what I can.
