Training for the 3 Day!!!
- Yes , I have walked hundreds of miles in preparation each year for walking 60 miles in 3 days in November....for over 20 years I have done this in hopes that a cure would be found...through the funds raised over these years treatments have improved, saving lives and individuals are living with metastatic breast cancer..( this was not possible when I began in 2003). The early diagnosis of all ages is now occurring ( yes breast cancer is not just for those over 60, unfortunately is is not age specific), (you can be diagnosed at any age), prevention, education, RESEARCH, along with treatment assistance is possible due to the funds raised through this walk. I once thought I could walk away, but NO, friends continued to be diagnosed and were thanking me for walking.....all I do is walk, they have to go through the difficulty of being diagnosed, treatment and side effects....to be able to live and continue to walk in their daily life with family and friends.
The 3 Day Walk is at times overwhelming and very humbling, as other individuals walking have not only lost friends as I did from this horrible cancer ,( and my grandmother), but individuals going thru treatment themselves, 16 year olds who have lost their mother to cancer walking with their father, men walking who have lost their wives and wives walking who have lost their husbands to BREAST CANCER..
I will continue to walk for those who cannot, those who are fighting the fight and deserve to have a cancer free life. Please support me as I walk the San Diego Susan Komen 3 Day - 60 miles in 3 Days.
I thank you with all of my heart for your support to save others so one day we have a world without breast cancer
