Training July 24-30 #the3day #keepgoing

Wow, where did this week go?! I should have been working hard to train for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure® walk and I didn’t make it to the gym once. Last weekend, though, at Bloggers on Bourbon I think I walked near 30 miles that weekend! I know for a fact that I walked near 5 miles just from Harrah’s casino, through the ghost tour and back to the hotel. (I was trying to track the walk on my phone. The battery died at over 4 miles.) That was just one fraction of the weekend! There was still airport walking, dancing, walking at the plantation, shopping in the French Market, etc.

I found out some news this week. My friend, Benah (rhymes with Dana), has been diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I am now dedicating my walk to her. I want to find a cure for her. She has two small children and an awesome husband. The world can not afford to lose Benah! She is a beautiful woman inside and out and a fighter. She will kick cancer’s butt! If you would like to show some support for Benah, you can find her on twitter.

I can not believe that my walk is 6 days away!! This week I am going to do my best to make it to the gym every day. I also have to pack for myself for the walk, pack my whole family for the Wisconsin Dells, pack myself for the Dells and make a cake for Thursday.

Hope everyone else is doing well on their training! Right now Tesa Nicolanti is walking the 3-Day for the Cure® walk in Cleveland. Head over and tell her you support her!
