If you are reading this, THANK YOU! Reaching out to friends and family to fund raise,.....well, it's uncomfortable. It is hard to ask for money, even if I know it isn't for me. I just received an email from the Komen Foundation that I have raised half of the $2300 minimum requirement. Yeah! It is because I have amazing friends and family.
Reading the Komen site for fundraising ideas, I came up with a cookie drawing if I can raise another $500 by Friday. As of the moment I am writing this, we are $150 away from that goal. I am going to bake one helluva (yes, that IS a word :-) bunch of cookies for whoever wins. They will be baked with a lot of LOVE. And no calories. Ha! OK, I can't work miracles.....or I wouldn't be chubby girl walking, now would I?
On the walking front, I have to tell you that Bella, my pooch and walking partner is getting much better at keeping a walking pace and doing less sniffing a long the way. She LOVES to walk with me and today, when we walked the trails, she kept a nice little trot going in ffront of me almost the whole way. In just a few weeks of training, a 4 mile walk seems short. Will I get tot he point that 10 miles feels short? Doubtful. Well, maybe on the 60 mile walk! I will post the cookie winner (I know we're going to get there) as soon as we do the drawing. Yeah for cookies!
