Kicking-off

Monday, April 14th, 2008, 12:04 pm

A Breast Cancer 3Day kick off event was held yesterday at the New Balance store on Wisconsin Ave. in DC. It was great to get together with fellow participants (including my teammate Mark, who I haven’t seen in over 20 years!) You know, I missed this sort of event when I was training on my own for the 3Day in Cleveland. It’s not that training with Raghu & Andrew wasn’t a lot of fun, but it really does make a difference when you’re walking with a group of folks who are working towards the same goal and for many of the same reasons.

 

Yesterday I also set up the shop for our team’s Café Press store. If you’re interested in supporting our efforts and wearing some team gear sporting Andria’s GREAT logo (thanks Andria!), please visit www.cafepress.com/quicksteppers. A dollar from the sale of each item will go towards a donation for our team. (And no, none of us will profit from these sales. Café Press is the only entity which is making a profit.)

There are Vermonters walking in the Boston 3-Day and I guess I should try to connect with them. There's only one person that I've been able to find who's walking in the Washington 3-Day from Vermont, and coincidentally, she's from the same little town I am. However, she didn't do cartwheels when I wrote her out of the blue and told her that I was also walking and potentially looking for a training partner. Perhaps she's not really thinking about the event yet, since it's almost six months away.
