At opening ceremonies, just getting ready to start the walk. Jenny, Bonnie, Me & Millie. Jenny wanted to do the walk in honor of Mom, breast cancer survivor 2011. We did several fundraisers to earn the money & friends donated to our accounts. We each had to earn $2,300.00. That was hard! We trained pretty good in the summer, which was also hard because of the extreme heat. Mom got sick in August so we took about a month off from her being in the hospital sick & needing taken care of. Then, the fair was on us in October & it was hard to train because of our time there. The walk was just a few days after the fair. We had gone on several long (15 - 18 mile) walks so we felt like we were ready. Our shoes were broke in. We did good & had lots of fun walking. Everyone made us feel like heroes & that was an awesome feeling.
