This will be my 12th year walking the 3-Day in various cities.  Last year, the event hit close to home.  My mom was diagnosed.  She had surgery, chemo and radiation, and I'm glad to say she kicked butt!!  She's doing amazingly well, but just another reason to keep walking until there is no reason to tell these kinds of stories. 

The Susan G. Komen 3-Day® isn’t just a 60-mile walk over the course of three days—it’s a journey to the end of breast cancer. 

In 2016, Komen announced a Bold Goal—to reduce the current number of breast cancer deaths by 50% in the U.S. by 2026. That’s why I’m walking, and raising money—to make that goal a reality.
