Breast Cancer 3-Day 2009

We are very happy here because we can see the Capitol - our final destination!

Team Giddy Up is recovering from walking 60 miles for the Breast Cancer 3-Day. It was an amazing journey and we had a blast along the way. It was challenging at times, but we worked our way through it. We are all so proud to have participated in this event and couldn't have done it without all of the support from our family and friends. Here is a sneak peek at our weekend. We will post more when we have the energy!

You can participate in the Breast Cancer 3-Day...without walking 60 miles.

After three days and 60 miles, participants will take a final and incredibly emotional victory walk into the Closing Ceremony. Friends, family and supporters should arrive at the Closing Ceremony site at least one hour early to get the best view of the program. Please allow extra travel time due to expected traffic congestion at the site.

Hope to see you there!

Hanging in the back yard with Sven...

On Thursday we participated in the '3 day for the 3-Day Tread-a-thon,' sponsored by Cities 97 and Kare 11 news. We won $1000 for the Breast Cancer 3-Day by walking on treadmills during the newscast. We had a great time hanging in the backyard with Sven! Thanks to Cities 97 and Kare 11 for this wonderful opportunity to raise awareness about Breast Cancer.
