It looks like my wife was finally able to get sponsorship to participate in the Susan G. Koman 3-Day for the Cure walk. For anyone who has been living under a rock, which is fine if you enjoy sub-rock living, it is a 3 day walk (60 miles) to raise money and awareness for finding a cure to breast cancer.
My wife has been wanting to do this walk for years now, but finances just wouldn’t allow it. Looks like this year will be different though, she was finally able to get $2300 in sponsorship money to participate. And here’s the fun part, I get to be her trainer!! I’ve been walking religiously since around Christmas time of last year, even going so far as to leave my visiting family in my house for an hour or so while I strolling around the neighborhood. So needless-to-say, hoofing it for 5 miles at a time isn’t that big of a deal for me. I wish I could go on longer walks but don’t want to be away from the house that long of a morning, leaving my poor wife alone with our little terror of a child.
So this is going to be fun. I get to go walking more and more and my wife gets the training she’ll need to be ready for the charity walk in the middle of August. I’m hoping that at least one day before the charity walk that we get to do a complete 20 mile walk in one day, but we’ll see how that goes.
