At this time next week I will be at about mile 5-6 in my 3 Day 60 mile challenge to try and end breast cancer – This will be my 2nd year in a row taking on this walk – this year is a little different, Im walking with a different team and my mind will be on my Aunt/My Friend who are all taking on their own battles with a different type of cancer – BUT knowing that I helped raise $$ that will in the long run benefit all cancer research will help me trudge on!
This year is also different in the AMAZING support I received from my MFP friends and friends of friends BUT I cannot take all the credit – My Real Life Best friend _SusieQ_ helped pimp out my shirts (Have you seen the Check THESE out shirts?) I designed these and I got a plethora of shirt orders and some new awesome friends added to my friend list!!
Just from MFP alone I raised over $600 for my walk - On average during training a 3Day walker walks 585 miles – this represents more than $1 for every mile I have walked and more importantly this money will be helped to provide mammograms that could be life-saving, it will help to provide the cost of transportation to a treatment session for a patient – and my amazing friends here helped me do this – so I want to give a big high five, virtual hug and THANK YOU so much to:
My NUMBER 1 Fan and Best Friend: SusieQ

My sexy Rhonda, the support you receive is small in comparison to how awesome you are.
Thank you for providing me the opportunity to get slapped for wearing the shirt. I will do anything to get the word out.
"Squeeze a boob! Save a life!" Save the Ta-Ta's!

Lots of love coming your way from Canada! You are amazing and youknow what? I didn't know you designed the shirts - even more amazing!
BTW - doing my own small thing for breast cancer awareness this weekend. Tomorrow I'm running the Color Me Rad 5K, raising money for Keep A Breast Canada (there is a Keep a Breast US as well), an organization that educates young women and men about the importance of self-examination for early detection of breast cancer.
Muah and (((hugs)))) - You're gonna do great!0 -
