    Started training about 5 weeks ago for my 3 day (60 miles for Breast Cancer) so getting ready to head out for a 14 mile walk....might try to go to the gym tomorrow Ü Hope everyone has a blessed day! I need to get back on these boards!!!!!
    Blessings!

    I told my hubby that I wanted to do that but we dont have the Money right now for it and he has no more vaca time to take off to watch the kids. So I have already planned it for next year. Where are you doing yours? Tell me how it goes afterwards.

    This is my 2nd 3 day...trained in so-cal last year but walked in Arizona with my best friend...this year will walk San Diego....our plan it to walk every city...(thats the 'plan' Ü) Might crew next year in Seattle and Walk either San Diego or another city....
    It is truly AMAZING!!!!! And unless you cant get people to donate (having a really hard time this year!!) it wont cost you anything.....well, 2 pairs of GOOD walking shoes is about it.....and we train Saturday mornings every weekend from about the 1st of August until the walk in November and 1 saturday/sunday combo a month.....I do walk during the week but only really short walks (under 5 miles usually)....I hope you can do it next year...what city will you walk in??? I will answer any questions you will have :wink:
    Blessings!
    Kathey, who got her VERY 1st blister EVER in training!!!

    I'm running a 10K race this morning. I'll probably take my bike for a spin tomorrow depending on the weather!

    BTW, shorerider, I LOVE your bike jersey! Holy rollers... that's great!

    10K :noway: WOW! Give a report when you get done. Gessh, that'd take me half a day!

    Thanks! I posted a report in the Runner's section if you want to check it out! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/25266-saturday-sept-13th-mfp-runners-club

    I don't know that I would say it was fun but my brother and I walked 12 miles this morning! We started at 6 a.m. and finished about 4 and a half hours later. We are training for the Breast Cancer 3 Day in November...and let me tell you, its a great way to force yourself to burn calories!

    Very COOL! We did a 14 mile training walk this morning and finished in about 3.5 hours. Is this your 1st walk? You must be doing either San Diego or Arizona? I did arizona last year and am doing San Diego this year....how is your fundraising going? And your training?
    Congrats on your 12 mile walk! Keep it up and HYDRATE!!! :wink:

    well this weekend is my moving weekend, so other than moving/carrying/unpacking stuff... pretty much nothing
    unfortunately, i didnt lift any of the heavy stuff yesterday and we had KFC for lunch, but today we have to carry boxes up a flight of stairs so here's hoping it burns and burns good

    I had the cat bus come pick me up today and take me to the gym at unlv. I did a 2 hour workout. I rode the bike for 10 minutes, walked 6 laps on the track without stopping. Which is good for me because I have trouble walking long time before having to sit down. And I did tons of stretching excercises that Hayley Hollander taught me. Did a few machines but that was it. Sunday I didn't arrange for bus but maybe will ride my bike the the gym here even though its crappy can get a workout. Rather go to the gym at UNLV

    This will be my first walk but my brother did it last year and is walking with me. It will be nice to have an experienced walker with me. Fundraising is not going particularly well...I'm at 700.00 and 7 weeks to go. Training, on the other hand, is going well....I walk 3 to 4 times a week 4-5 miles and then a big walk every weekend. We are kicking it up to 14 miles next weekend. We are walking in Dallas.

    5 buddies and I are doing the Rosarito-Ensenada Bike ride. It's 52 miles, about 2/3 of it is right along the beach. It's a road ride, but I have a mountain bike, so I'm pretty slow. Almost the entire route the road is lined with people who come out to cheer you on. All the bikers carry candy and throw it to the children along the route. It has a real community party event feeling. I get to enjoy all that's wonderful about Mexico without any of the problems. It's a fundraiser for the Cruz Roja (Red Cross) in Baja California. Unfortunately, due to the problems in Mexico the number of riders has declined from 10,000 to 5,000 and they say that this will be the last one.
