Fight Like a Girl

Last year my school had a team that walked in the Susan B. Komen Race for a Cure.  I really wanted to walk, but my back was not cooperating with that level of activity.  I was incredibly disappointed, and it was one of the things that really inspired me to join WW; the thought of being unable to do a 3 mile walk without pain was unacceptable to me.

I’m proud to say that I have joined my school’s team this year and will be walking!  The team members even voted for the team name I chose.  Of course, like a lame-o I cannot remember the exact wording of that name.  But it’s super cool. :)

The walk takes place on June 13th, and I’m incredibly excited about it.  Most of you will remember that I participated in the JDRF walk back in November.  This was a really rewarding experience, and one I’m very proud of for a lot of reasons.  For that walk I asked that anyone who could donate, give what they could.

I’d like to ask for your help again.  Please visit my page for the Komen Race for a Cure.  I set my fundraising goal at $150, and I really hope to achieve it.  This walk raises so much money, and it all goes toward research that will hopefully find a cure for Breast Cancer.  Any little bit helps, even $1.

So… fight like a girl, and donate!
