In November of 2023 and 2024, we walked 60 miles over three days as part of the Susan G. Komen 3-Day to raise money for breast cancer research and support for those in need. Together, as Miles for Melons, we faced some of the most physically and emotionally challenging days of our lives—but they were also the most magical. We laughed, cried, and bonded, united by our shared commitment to creating a world without breast cancer.

This year, we are proud to announce that Miles for Melons will be walking for the third time in the San Diego 3-Day. Every single one of us has been personally impacted by breast cancer in some way. Despite the hardships, we are empowered and inspired to keep walking because we believe in our mission.

The training is hard. Walking 60 miles is hard. But none of it is as hard as…

• Hearing the words, “You have cancer.”
• Enduring the side effects of chemo.
• Facing daily radiation treatments for weeks, months, or even years.
• Recovering from reconstructive surgery and everything it entails.
• Getting bad news at your latest scan.
• Saying goodbye to someone you love.

That’s why we walk. That’s why we are raising money—to end breast cancer forever.

This November, we’ll lace up our shoes again, determined to make a difference. We humbly ask for your support to help fund critical breast cancer research and provide care for those battling this disease. If you’re able, please consider making a tax-deductible donation—every dollar truly matters.

Feeling inspired to join us? We’d love to welcome you to Miles for Melons! Whether you walk for one, two, or all three days, you’ll be part of an incredible community fighting for a world without breast cancer. Friends, family, and anyone ready to make an impact are welcome. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. Here’s the link to register: [Insert Link].
