Hello family & friends,

I'm taking on a meaningful challenge for myself: the Susan G. Komen 2-Day, a 40-mile walk over two days in San Diego, to raise funds and awareness in the fight against breast cancer. 

Over the years I've seen this disease touch many family members and friends. And their strength, resilience, and courage going through such physically and emotionally difficult times left a lasting mark on me, so I want to honor them - and everyone who has faced breast cancer - by undertaking this fundraising effort.

I am really looking forward to participating in the walk, as it isn't just about the miles -  it's about supporting survivors across those miles, remembering those we've lost, and helping fund the research for a cure and resources that support others in their fight against breast cancer.

Please consider a donation, and if you are local, let me know if you want to join me on a "training" walk over the next two months. I really need to start ramping up on weekly 5, 6, and 7 mile walks to get ready by November 15th!

Thank you for your support,

Melissa
