When I signed up for the 3-day I also signed up for their 24-week training in which I received a little calendar filled with training for each and everyday for 24 weeks leading up to the official 3-day walk. However, I've been pretty anxious to get started which is why Jamie (my 3-day partner in crime) and I started training a few weeks ago.
Officially, we have 27 weeks and 185 days left until Day 1 of the 3-day walk for the Cure. Tonight, I decided to make my walk a little more interesting. My friend Shannon (who has been so great and joined me for a few walks through my training thus far) and I decided to walk to this new frozen yogurt place I discovered a few weeks ago. It's called Yogurtlicious (Barton Road), and if you haven't been, I HIGHLY recommend it-- it's like the new Ohana's! Anyway, it's approximately 2 miles away from my apartment. A good 4 mile round-trip walk for a summer evening.
According to MapMyRun (which is this fancy little app Jamie introduced me to which uses GPS to calculate your distance, pace, time, calories burned, etc), we walked 4.54 miles in total. It was a great little walk, and kind of relaxing too!
I've found that I'm really enjoying training. It's really great to set aside the time to just walk either by yourself or with a friend and debunk the day or week or what have you. It's very relaxing and you're forced to put the world away until you are done walking. There's no short cuts to getting back to your car or apartment either, no one to pick you up, you just push through until you get back and THEN you can deal with your problems. Training has been a method of "getting away" for me, which is really quite nice.
On another note- so far I have raised $426!!! This is such a great number to be at! My meter is up to 5% which I love seeing. We've got to keep it rising though. Please, help me reach my goal!
If everyone put in $100, we'd be there so quickly!! However, I understand that not all of you have $100 to spare. Do you have $25 to spare? ...would you consider donating $25 over 4 months? This is an option you can choose when you place your donate with Susan G. Komen. Check out the website and see how much of a difference your donation can make! http://www.the3day.org/goto/katiestutz
