Let the training begin!!!
August 6-8 will find me on a 60-mile trek through Chicago in an effort to cure breast cancer.
Yep, I am participating in the Susan G. Komen Walk for the Cure!!!
I used the Christmas money my dad gave me to pay for the registration fee and would like to use y'all for motivation.
I am going to blog my training here and I even offered to lead training walks in the city. If you want to join the team, feel free (coughAbbycough). The more the merrier!!!
The event is 199 days from now and I am totally stoked to do it!
Otherwise, I am on a mission to raise the requisite $2,300. If you want to donate, or even send it to others to donate under my name CLICK HERE!

Pounding the Ground: 100 miles to find a cure
Help find a cure ...
What's this all about?
When my boyfriend told me his mother has breast cancer, I began a long search for a way to help. When I read about the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure, I knew I had to do it.
After months of fundraising, I raised more than $2300 and walked 60 miles in the Chicago 3-Day!
Now, I'm learning to be a runner and just finished my first 5k!
All in all, I am participating in 100 miles of events in order to raise $5000 to find a cure. I've walked 60 miles, run a 5k (3.1 miles), have a half marathon planned for February (13.1 miles) and will end by running a marathon for the cure in April!

Breast Cancer Half-Marathon: 13.1 miles
