I did it Again…

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008, 1:02 pm

Or rather, I’m doing it again. I’ve signed up for the Washington DC Breast Cancer 3-Day. It’s not ‘til October, so I have plenty of time to start training and to raise the funds. This year my goal is to double what I raised last year. I want to raise $5K. I think I can do this.

I’ve also volunteered to become a trainer. I survived Cleveland. Surely I can pass on my “lessons learned” to others to help them get ready for this walk.

My only obstacle is that I don’t have a team this year. Last year I walked with a friend. Another friend is interested but really doesn’t want to do any fundraising. If she decides to not do this, I’ll have to find a team so that I won’t end up with a perfect stranger sharing my tent.

Good on yer, mate.

I've found that with each year it gets harder and harder to raise funds for the same cause; people get desensitized, people think 'I gave last year, I gave two years in a row' and they start turning the other way and walking off in a hurry when they see you coming with a hopeful look on your face. :)

Of course, your face is a lot more appealing than mine, and your cause is one that a lot of people feel a lot more strongly about than, say, the Special Olympics.
