14 more days!!

So we have 14 more days until the Mammaritaville pre-party!! 15 more days until we walk 60 miles as one for a cure!!

We are down two walkers now, Shari is unable to walk due to conflicts with work and then Karen is unable to walk for medical reasons. So we are down to 4 strong walkers!! Me, Jen, Amber and Jaimie! We are ready!! (atleast I hope so!)

I have been walking more lately so that is preparing me more. I am going to do a 10 mile walk this weekend and another 10 mile walk next weekend before the walk. I am going to go on a canoe trip the sunday before the walk! I can't wait! I am gonna kayak for the first time I think!

All is good otherwise, Niko and Jazzy are great! I miss my Jasper everyday!

Thank you everyone for your continued support and encouragement!

GO MAMMIES!!! CHOOOCHOOOOO!

7 miles...more hills than I needed!

So I was in Nashville over the weekend visiting with Shari(one of my best friends and one of our walkers on my team). We decided that we were going to go for a walk on Saturday. We did 7 miles, but it was a brutal 7 miles. It was almost 90 degrees out and no shade. It was total sun exposure so it was brutal. My body was fine, but it was just the heat exhaustion that was makin my heart race and killin me. I had to stop a few times to sit in the shade and calm down a bit. We stopped for ice cream(frozen yogurt) on our way out at a new place, Nati Creme, and it was SOOO good! So we were able to take a few breaks in the shade or a/c atleast.

I had a great time this weekend! We went on a trail ride on Sunday and that was a good time!

We are only 3 weeks away from the walk!! I can't believe it! I am so ready to take the next step and walk the 60 miles with my wonderful friends and make that bold statement that I will not sit back and watch while millions of women suffer!

Thanks again for everyone's support.
