My 3 Day Walk

I know some people have been waiting for me to write and post pictures of my 3 day journey, and I apologize it has taken so long it has been busy!

First, I want to thank EVERYONE who supported me by coming out to cheer, donating money, praying, and just being there as I took on this experience. I would not have been able to complete the walk or raise the money without all of you! Thank you, I truly could not have done it without all of you! Next, to my walking partners, Rochelle and Sheila--- thank you SO much for walking with me! I had so much fun getting to know you and walking with you all weekend!

I spent 3 days walking and camping to walk 60 miles and raise money to help end breast cancer. It was an AMAZING experience. To walk with over 3,000 men and women to take a stand against cancer, and raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research, was great! We started at Southfork Ranch the first day (where Dallas was filmed) and walked to SMU over the course of 3 days. We walked approx 20 miles a day, then camped at night. I have never camped in a tent, and I learned after the first night, that there is an inner zipper and an outer zipper. Needless to say, we were much warmer the second night in our tent.

On Sunday when my feet were sore, my legs hurt, I had been walking for 3 days and sleeping outside, I said I didn't think I would do it again. Now, a week later and feeling much better, I 100% believe the experience was worth all the pain and I would do it again!!! :)

Here are just a few pics from along the journey
