Accountability – Week 13

May was a terrible month for training (and accountability) but I am back!  I didn’t have a stellar week but I walked more miles than was called for this weekend.  It felt good.  After pushing the boys for seven miles yesterday, today’s 4 mile walk was a piece of cake.  I invested in my “hydration system” — who knew there was such a thing? And picked up some different brands of socks to see which ones I like the best.  I’m really looking forward to next weekend when we have some “girl walks” planned.  It’s been a busy couple of … Read more

Milestones

It’s a big week for Linda’s Ladies.  It’s a big week for me. When I set out on this journey last year I committed to raising $2300.  I was nervous.  I hoped I could do it.  I was prepared to put my own money up if I couldn’t meet that minimum.  This week I crossed the $4000 mark.  It’s unbelievable to me.  I am so grateful that others believe in what I am doing.  I am so grateful that others share the goal, the desire to find a cure and beat breast cancer once and for all. When I set … Read more

Accountability – Week 8

It’s here.  Tomorrow starts the official count down to the walk.  Tomorrow starts the official training schedule.  I am so excited.  I am so ready for this.  The first couple weeks should be a breeze but then miles start stacking up quickly.  My game face is on!  I am determined to rock this walk.  And 8 weeks!  EIGHT WEEKS.  That’s like two months.  I’ve been doing this accountability thing for two whole months and it’s working.   I’ve talked before about how easily I tend to give up on things.  I have to say I am very happy with how consistent … Read more

Accountability Report – Week 7

This week I worked to get myself back on track and feel that overall I was successful.  I Would have liked to walk on Sunday but the weather got the best of me. On a fundraising note I crossed the $3600 threshold.  I am less than $1000 away from my goal of $4600.  Today we are $3693.14 closer to a cure.  $3693.14 closer to daughters never having to go through what I did.  $3693.14 closer to never having to walk again! I am so grateful for the generosity I have been shown.  The support, financially and emotionally has been overwhelming.  … Read more
