This year I committed to an incredible challenge. I'll be walking 20 miles on August 17, the final day of the Susan G. Komen New England 3-Day, in Boston.

With my background of over 100 completed half-marathons (and a couple of full marathons), I feel I will be prepared. It will be hard, but not as hard as breast cancer - not as hard as chemo - not as hard as getting bad news at your latest scan - and not as hard as saying goodbye. And that’s why I know I have to do this. 

I’m walking with the ElitebEASTs team and I’m raising money to end breast cancer forever. I have now met three fundraising goals as of May 9. Just topping $2500 on Friday afternoon. So, now I'll be looking to meet goal number 4, $3500!

I hope you will make a gift- all $ levels appreciated - towards my 20-Mile fundraising effort supporting the Komen New England 3-Day. Thank you.

Most sincerely,

Linda
