In 2025, I will again be walking to fight against breast cancer in the 2025 Susan G Komen 3-Day Walk events....but with a huge hole in my heart.

In 2023, Maureen and I had plans to walk in 3 different cities. Those plans changed when in June 2023, it was confirmed that metastatic breast cancer was the reason for her severe gastro symptoms.  Walking that final hospice journey with Maureen through August 1 was harder than any of the previous 2500 miles of walking in 3Day events.  

"I would walk another 1000 miles to have one more day with you".

With much help and support, I walked events in 2023 in Denver and San Diego...with Maureen in my heavy heart. And then I walked again in all 4 cities in 2024 as Maureen and I had done together in 2022  

Each 3-Day event involves covering 60 miles on foot over 3 days with thousands of women and men who are committed to creating a world without breast cancer. During each of the walks, I am energized by the world of kindness that prevails and by the real heroes I get to walk and camp with every day. So, as long as I am able, I will be walking to state quite firmly that breast cancer CANNOT and WILL NOT win this battle! In doing so, I honor the courage of all those battling the disease; I celebrate the shortened lives of those who have lost the battle to breast cancer; And I share the hope that we can reduce and eventually eliminate the number of women who have to fight the battle.

* Making a contribution to the cause.
Proceeds will be going to breast cancer research, treatment and awareness programs through Susan G. Komen for the Cure, one of the world's leading cancer organizations.

... or if you would prefer to write a check, just send me a donation (checks made payable to "Susan G. Komen 3-Day ") and I will take care of it from there. Thanks so much for joining me in this important fight! Every mile and every dollar makes a difference!
