We are one day away from the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer! When I signed up for this in January, it felt like it was years away!! But it's HERE! My team of 14 is gearing up. We have are practically giddy with excitement! We are decked in pink, have pink nails, pink flip flops, cute pink camo t-shirts that say "Fight Cancer" and "Patrick's Platoon," pink camo bandaids and on and on.
Tonight and tomorrow night, we will all stay together in our friend's large guest house. At 5 a.m. tomorrow, we will be picked up by a van to take us to Chicago to begin the 26 mile walk. Opening ceremonies will be at Soldier Field and we will end in Warren Park at a special Wellness Village. Our driver will take us back to Lake Forest where we will be met by 3 massage therapists and dinner. Early to bed to begin again on Sunday at 8 a.m. for 13.3 miles back to Soldier Field. Our spouses and children will meet us at Buckingham Fountain and some of the kids will walk this final mile with us. My children - Georgia and Patrick will cross the finish line with me! I am so excited to actually cross this finish line and put my whole breast cancer experience officially behind me!
Thanks for all your support, prayers and love!
