About Me

True Minnesota girl at heart!This layout is from WhateverLife.com; get yours today!
In October, 2005 I participated in the Breast Cancer 3-Day walk in Phoenix, Arizona. I raised over $2100 for breast cancer research and walked 60 miles in three days with friends. I survived the three days with some really sore feet afterwards. And yes, I WOULD do it again - especially for JDW. The current plan is to participate in the Breast Cancer 3-Day again in the fall of 2007. Our team is having a benefit in June with a silent auction.

Such a huge accomplishment for all my friends afflicted with Breast Cancer and anyone whom I don't know battling it, I walked for you!
