Every year for the past 5 years I have participated in this amazing emotionally draining event.  And every year, without fail, I come back to do it all over again.

This year is my 5th with the event and as a crew member I have set a goal of raising $1000 with my team.  I know many people have been touched my this disease in some form or another.  I've included a link to my event page and would ask that everyone check it out, and browse around to see what kind of good things this event does.  I'd love to completely surpass my goal this year.

I just re-read my bucket list today for after weight loss surgery and it includes someday doing the 3-day. I have not been affected by breast cancer and neither has anyone close to me. But I am drawn to this event for some unexplained reason. When I saw your post shortly after re-reading my bucket list, I took it as a sign and made a small donation. Hope you reach your goal - and praying for an end for ALL cancer!

Blessings,

Amy

 Thank you so much!

It's an addiction.  It really gets into your system and it's very emotional.

There are always crew volunteers needed so you can still participate even if you are not able to walk the 60 miles.  I have done both.
