Avon Walking

Three cheers for my friends walking the Avon Walk in D.C. tomorrow and Sunday. I am absolutely blown away by their endurance (they’ve trained since September), their energy (it’s 39 miles, people), and their dedication. Oh, and check out their team name:

For our daughters.

I am so amazed to know these women.

I have sponsored one of the women on my flylady list and cannot comprehend the dedication to walk 39 MILES. Ugh!

I know I’m commenting off topic, but I wanted to let you know that I purchased a luminary at my local Relay for Life on your behalf. Our event was last night.

Here’s the link to my “wrap up” post:

I am so looking forward to meeting you and speaking with you at Blogher. I haven’t been present with comments during your struggle, I didn’t want you to think that I was some johnny come lately hanger-on but I have been reading and have been touched and changed by your grace.

39 miles is nothing if it gets us even one step closer to a cure for breast cancer (this year was my second Avon Walk DC). Congrats to your friends, and thanks for your support!
